Waivers allow you to intentionally accept risk for specific controls. Export as .wafpass-skip.yml.

No waivers configured. Add waivers from the Controls Library.

Formal risk acceptances require approver sign-off, an RFC or ticket reference, and a defined residual risk level.

No risk acceptances recorded. Click Add Risk Acceptance to begin.

Tip: Only controls with findings will impact your score.

General Settings

Scan Defaults

These defaults pre-fill the Run Scan form and are passed as CLI flags when generating commands.

Intelligence Features

Enhanced analysis modules that run alongside the core control checks. Disabling them speeds up scans in resource-constrained environments.

Secret Scanner
Detect exposed API keys and credentials in IaC
Auto-fix Engine α
Generate concrete remediation patches for FAIL controls
Carbon & ESG Tracking
Estimate carbon footprint per control, included in PDF
Blast Radius Display
Show impact score per control to prioritise remediation
Reporting

Control how scan results are presented and exported.

Auto-open PDF after export
Automatically open the generated PDF report in a new tab

Settings are persisted in browser local storage and survive page reloads.

WAF++ PASS v1.1.0 — includes the new AGENTIC pillar and the radical command-center dashboard. All waivers, scans, and auto-fix actions in this page are simulated for demo purposes.

Installation

Requirements
Python 3.10+ Terraform .tf files or CDK project WAF++ Controls (YAML) No cloud credentials required
From GitHub Release

Download the .whl artifact from the latest release and install via pip.

# Download from GitHub Releases
pip install wafpass-0.3.0-py3-none-any.whl
From Source

Clone the repository and install in editable mode. Works with pip or uv.

# Standard pip
pip install -e .

# Or with uv (faster)
uv pip install -e .
Quick Start
# 1. Download WAF++ controls into a local controls/ directory
#    (from the WAF++ framework repo or author your own YAML controls)

# 2. Run a scan against your IaC directory (Terraform default)
wafpass check ./infra/

# 3. Specify IaC framework explicitly
wafpass check ./infra/ --iac terraform

# 4. Multi-cloud / multi-path scan
wafpass check ./aws ./azure ./gcp

# 5. Launch the web UI dashboard
wafpass ui start
# → http://localhost:8080

# 6. Export a PDF compliance report
wafpass check ./infra/ --output pdf
CI/CD Integration

Use --fail-on fail to break pipelines on control failures. Native GitHub Actions and GitLab CI examples are available in the documentation. Intentional exceptions go in .wafpass-skip.yml and appear as WAIVED in reports without breaking CI.

Attack Chains

These exploit paths are illustrative attack chains based on common cloud misconfiguration patterns aligned to WAF++ controls. They represent theoretical attack scenarios; actual exploitability depends on your specific infrastructure configuration and compensating controls in place.

Demo Mode: Secret Scanner simulates credential detection client-side. No files leave your browser.

New Control

Step of 7 — ·
Describe in plain language what your infrastructure must enforce. This becomes the control description that engineers will read in scan results.
Choose the security pillar this control belongs to. It determines the control ID prefix and how findings are categorised.
Auto-suggested from pillar prefix. Edit freely — must be unique.
Select one or more control types that describe how this control is enforced. Choose all that apply.
Select at least one type to continue.
Define individual checks that implement this control. Each check maps to a specific engine assertion.
No checks yet. Click "+ Add check" to define a check.

How to Implement

Integration guide for WAF++ controls
Mode:
WAF++ CLI is the primary way to run controls against Terraform infrastructure. Install it with pip and point it at your IaC.
1. Install
pip install wafpass
2. Run a scan
wafpass scan --path ./terraform
3. Get a score report
wafpass scan --path ./terraform --output json > results.json
From a local controls folder
Drop your YAML control files in a controls/ directory and point wafpass at it:
wafpass scan --path ./terraform --controls ./controls/
From wafpass-server (DB)
Start wafpass-server locally and use the --controls-db flag to pull custom controls:
# Start the server
docker run -p 8000:8000 ghcr.io/waf-plus-plus/wafpass-server:latest

# Scan using DB controls
wafpass scan --path ./terraform --controls-db http://localhost:8000
Push scan results to wafpass-server so this dashboard can visualise posture over time.
Push results to dashboard
wafpass scan --path ./terraform --push http://your-server:8000
View in dashboard
open http://your-server:8000
Use the Download Checkov Pack button to get Python stubs for all controls, then load them as external Checkov checks.
1. Install Checkov
pip install checkov
2. Download & extract the pack
# Click "Download Checkov Pack" above, then:
unzip wafpass_checkov_pack_*.zip
3. Run Checkov with custom checks
checkov -d ./terraform --external-checks-dir ./wafpass_checks/
Each Python stub in the pack is a BaseResourceCheck subclass with a scan_resource_conf method. Replace the raise NotImplementedError with your actual check logic.
Example stub
def scan_resource_conf(self, conf):
    # Check that encryption is enabled
    enc = conf.get("server_side_encryption", [{}])
    if enc and enc[0]:
        return CheckResult.PASSED
    return CheckResult.FAILED
