sapper: evidence-first AWS cloud-security platform
sapper is one flagship delivered as three releases. Release 1 is a Terraform AWS security core that blocks unsafe infrastructure in code and never remediates a finding without human approval bound to a hash of the dry-run plan, with a provably bounded blast radius. Detection and the CI gate are live today; the remediate loop is the current build. Release 2 will add an evaluated, regression-gated AI advisory on Bedrock, advisory only, with no permission to act. Release 3 will run that advisory on EKS with pod-scoped identity. Evidence for every decision, denial, and state transition.
Release 1 pipeline: detect → dry-run → human gate (approval required) → remediate → verify.
