Infrastructure drift and drift detection explained
Learn what infrastructure drift is, the causes of drift, and tips for managing drift — whether you’re a solo developer or a large organization.
Infrastructure can — and often is — modified post-deployment. This causes deviations known as "drift" from what's defined in IaC and what exists in the cloud. Snyk IaC keeps you secure from code to cloud by detecting and surfacing unmanaged infrastructure drift.
Empower developers and cloud security teams to secure their Terraform from code to cloud. Snyk IaC helps you secure faster by reporting unmanaged cloud resources directly to developers.
