Infrastructure Misconfiguration
Infrastructure definitions can encode settings that create unintended exposure when deployed.
Infrastructure Security
Understand the security of the environments your applications rely on.
Application security does not stop at source code. Infrastructure definitions, containers, cloud environments, and hosts all influence the security of the applications they support.
Qualipr helps teams assess these layers and identify configuration risks across their infrastructure.

The challenge
Your application is only as secure as the environment it runs in.
A secure codebase is an important starting point, but it is only one part of the application security picture. Infrastructure definitions can introduce risky configurations. Container images may contain vulnerable components. Cloud resources and host configurations can expose systems in ways that are easy to miss when each layer is reviewed separately.
When infrastructure risks are difficult to see, teams have a harder time understanding the full environment behind an application.
Container Risk
Container images and configurations introduce another layer of security considerations that teams need to assess.
Cloud Configuration Exposure
Cloud resources and their configurations can affect how applications and services are exposed and protected.
Host Configuration Weaknesses
Host and operating-system settings influence the security baseline of the environments where applications run.
The Qualipr approach
See infrastructure risks across the layers behind your applications.
Qualipr extends security assessment beyond application code. It helps teams review infrastructure definitions, container security, cloud configurations, and host environments—bringing these infrastructure concerns into the wider application security process.
Assess configurations
Review infrastructure definitions and identify risky configuration patterns.
Understand infrastructure layers
Assess containers, cloud environments, and hosts as part of the application environment.
Review findings with context
Use assessment results to understand which infrastructure areas may need further investigation.
01 / Infrastructure as Code
Identify risky configurations in infrastructure definitions.
Infrastructure as Code makes infrastructure repeatable, but it also means configuration choices are written into files and shared through development workflows. Qualipr’s IaC assessment helps identify risky configuration patterns in infrastructure definitions, giving teams an opportunity to review potential issues before those definitions shape deployed environments.
- Review infrastructure definitions for configuration risks.
- Identify patterns that may introduce security exposure.
- Give engineering teams clearer information for follow-up.

02 / Container Security
Assess the security of the containers your applications depend on.
Containers package application components and the environments needed to run them. Their images and configurations can introduce vulnerabilities or insecure settings that deserve attention. Qualipr’s Container Security capability helps teams assess container-related risks as part of a broader view of application infrastructure.
- Assess container-related security risks.
- Review findings that may affect the environments running applications.
- Bring container assessment into the wider infrastructure security picture.

03 / Cloud Security
Understand configuration risks across cloud environments.
Cloud environments are built from interconnected resources and configuration choices. A weakness in how those resources are configured can affect the security of the applications and services that rely on them. Qualipr’s Cloud Security capability helps assess cloud-related configuration and resource risks, giving teams more visibility into the environments supporting their applications.
- Review cloud-related configuration risks.
- Understand potential weaknesses across cloud resources.
- Include cloud environments in infrastructure security assessment.

04 / Host Security Assessment
Review the security configuration of the hosts behind your applications.
Hosts and operating systems provide the foundation on which application workloads run. Their configuration and hardening state can influence the security of the wider environment. Qualipr’s Host Security Assessment (HSA) helps teams review host and operating-system configurations to identify areas that may require attention.
- Review host and operating-system configurations.
- Assess configuration and hardening-related concerns.
- Understand host-level risks as part of infrastructure security.

Assessment context
One infrastructure picture
Different infrastructure layers. One broader security picture.
Infrastructure risks do not exist in isolation. Infrastructure definitions shape environments, containers package workloads, cloud resources provide services, and hosts support the systems that applications run on.
Qualipr brings these assessment areas together as part of its Infrastructure Security module, helping teams look beyond source code and understand more of the environment behind their applications.

From assessment to review
Bring infrastructure assessment into your security workflow.
Infrastructure security is most useful when assessment results can be reviewed and acted on by the teams responsible for those environments. Qualipr is designed to bring security analysis into a broader platform workflow, helping teams understand findings and decide where further investigation is needed.
Select the infrastructure scope
Identify the infrastructure layer or asset that is within the supported assessment scope.
Run the assessment
Execute the supported analysis workflow for that capability.
Review the findings
Inspect the available results and understand the configuration concerns identified.
Plan the next action
Use the findings to guide investigation and remediation by the responsible team.
