AIaCGateGuard: A Security-First Pipeline for Benchmarking LLM- and SLM-Generated Infrastructure-as-Code

We present AIACGATEGUARD, an open-source, fully automated pipeline for evaluating the security compliance of Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) generated by Large and Small Language Models (LLMs/SLMs). Unlike existing IaC generation benchmarks, which assess only syntactic validity or functional correctness, AIACGATEGUARD int...

Security-First Evaluation of Text-to-Terraform: Benchmarking LLMs and SLMs for Secure IaC Generation

Cloud misconfiguration remains a leading cause of security incidents, yet whether LLMs and SLMs can generate security-compliant Infrastructure-as-Code is an open question. We benchmark seven models, three closed LLMs (Claude Opus 4, GPT-5.4, Gemini 2.5 Pro) and four open SLMs (Qwen2.5-Coder-14B, WizardCoder-33B, CodeLl...

Can Language Models Generate Secure Terraform Code? A Security-Focused Benchmark Using Static Analysis

An empirical benchmark evaluating whether LLMs and SLMs can generate security-compliant AWS Terraform configurations suggests that prompt design is a critical factor, highlighting the need for a proper pipeline for developing and validating LLM-assisted secure IaC generation.
