## Auto Enabling

Bandit will be auto-enabled if any *Python* files are present.

## Settings

Bandit supports the following config files:

* `.bandit`

You can move these files to `.trunk/configs` and `trunk check` will still find them. See [Moving Linters](https://docs.trunk.io/code-quality/overview/configure-linters#moving-linters) for more info.
