Security scanning tools must be fully configured to maximize detection capabilities. When implementing tools like Checkov in CI/CD pipelines:

  1. For Docker-based scanners, use the --tty flag for better output handling:
    -   id: checkov_container
     name: Checkov
     description: This hook runs checkov.
     entry: bridgecrew/checkov:latest -d . --tty
    
  2. Enable comprehensive file scanning to detect all potential security issues:
    -   id: checkov_secrets
     name: Checkov Secrets
     description: This hook looks for secrets with checkov.
     entry: checkov -d . --framework secrets --enable-secret-scan-all-files
    

Improper configuration of security scanners can lead to false negatives, allowing vulnerabilities like leaked secrets, insecure infrastructure configurations, or compliance violations to go undetected. Always verify that security scanning tools are configured with appropriate flags to ensure complete coverage of your codebase.
