AI agents call scan-iac to retrieve information from Security Scanner MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool analyzes IaC configurations to detect security issues but does not execute, modify, delete, or deploy infrastructure. It retrieves and analyzes configuration data, making it a Read operation with low severity—the blast radius of misuse is minimal, as scanning itself has no side effects on systems or data.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'scan-iac' and description indicate scanning/inspection of Infrastructure-as-Code files (Dockerfile, Kubernetes YAML, Terraform) for security vulnerabilities.

Register the Security Scanner MCP server in PolicyLayer and add a rule for scan-iac: allow, deny, rate-limit, or require approval. Point your MCP client at the PolicyLayer proxy URL and the rule is enforced on every call, before it reaches Security Scanner MCP. Nothing to install.
scan-iac is a Read tool with low risk. Read-only tools are generally safe to allow by default.
Yes. Add a rate_limit block to the scan-iac rule in your PolicyLayer policy. For example, setting max: 10 and window: 60 limits the tool to 10 calls per minute. Rate limits are tracked per agent session and reset automatically.
Set action: deny in the PolicyLayer policy for scan-iac. The AI agent will receive a policy violation error and cannot call the tool. You can also include a reason field to explain why the tool is blocked.
scan-iac is provided by the Security Scanner MCP server (ongjin/security-scanner-mcp). PolicyLayer sits as a proxy in front of this server to enforce policies before tool calls reach the server.
