This workflow automates the detection and correction of security misconfigurations in Infrastructure-as-Code before deployment, directly addressing the operational bottleneck of manual, post-scan remediation. Savings come from eliminating hours of developer toil per finding, reducing cloud exposure windows, and preventing costly audit failures. The architecture integrates agents with version control (GitHub/GitLab), policy engines (Checkov, Terrascan), and CI/CD systems to create a closed-loop remediation system with mandatory human review gates for high-risk changes.
