Configures Checkov for IaC security scanning across Terraform, CloudFormation, Kubernetes, Helm, ARM, Serverless, AWS CDK - `pip install checkov`, custom Python checks, SARIF / JUnit output, and `--baseline` gating so CI fails only on new findings in legacy code. Use for the broadest built-in rule set with Python custom checks; for a consolidated new-project scanner (and the tfsec successor) use trivy-config.
