Overview
Compliance as Code translates complex regulatory requirements (like HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or GDPR) into automated tests and configurations. This allows organizations to maintain a 'continuous compliance' state rather than preparing for periodic audits.
Key Concepts
- Automated Auditing: Continuously scanning infrastructure for compliance violations.
- Self-Healing: Automatically fixing non-compliant resources.
- Audit-Ready Reports: Generating documentation directly from the code and scan results.
Benefits
- Reduced Risk: Identify and fix compliance gaps in real-time.
- Lower Costs: Automate the time-consuming manual audit process.
- Increased Trust: Provide verifiable proof of compliance to stakeholders.
