Explanation

IaC stores infrastructure definitions as version‐controlled code, so every change is reviewable, auditable, and repeatable. You can spin up identical, securely preconfigured environments from the same template, eliminating drift and undocumented tweaks that plague traditional, manually built infrastructure. This consistency and traceability are what make IaC the more secure choice.
