A secure configuration baseline for Terraform would include the following:
- Using strong and unique passwords for all Terraform resources, such as access keys and secret keys.
- Enabling multi-factor authentication for all user accounts that can access Terraform resources
- Restricting access to Terraform configuration files and state files to only authorized users.
- Regularly rotating and regenerating access keys and secret keys to prevent unauthorized access.
- Ensuring that all Terraform modules and plugins are from trusted sources and are regularly updated to the latest version.
- Using appropriate security groups and network access controls to restrict access to Terraform-managed resources.
- Regularly auditing and monitoring the use of Terraform resources and the changes made to their configurations.
- Implementing a backup and disaster recovery plan to ensure the availability of Terraform-managed resources.
