# Terrascan
This plugin allows you to scan the Terraform code with **`Terrascan`** and provide output.
{% hint style="info" %} **`Terrascan`** is a static code analyzer for **Infrastructure as Code.**
It provides **500+ out**-of-the-box policies so that you can scan **IaC** against common policy standards such as the **CIS Benchmark.**

**Configuration options**
1. **Name:** This is a **Brainboard** field to describe what this task is about.
2. **Scan rules:** Specify rules to scan, example: -**scan-rules**=**`“ruleID1,ruleID2”`**.
3. **Skip rules:** specify one or more rules to skip while scanning:
1. Example: **–skip-rules**=**“ruleID1,ruleID2”**
2. No space should be added after the comma in the list.
4. **Ignore failure:** this will put the task in a non-blocking failure, which means, the execution of the following stage will be triggered even if the task fails.
5. **Require approval:** It means that this task will not be executed until approved by people added to the approvers' list.
* The task remains blocked until all approvers added in the list approve it.
* When enabled, it allows you to add approvers to the list.
* The approver has to be a **Brainboard** user.
