N2 - The present paper aims at presenting a structured literature review for what concerns the following aspects: Infrastructure as a Code (IaC) languages, modelling approaches supporting the generation of IaC, categories of languages, and their characteristics, and security analysis techniques. Finally, the paper draws conclusions and gives some future research perspectives.More specifically, the objective is to identify, analyze and interpret all available evidence from primary studies related to four specific research questions which involve the review, planning, conducting, and reporting stages, as suggested by the PRISMA methodology. More than 100 articles in the latest years are surveyed and thus a current, justified state of the art is presented hereby.
