### Description{% #description %}

`nifcloud_router` resources must include a `security_group` attribute. Routers without a `security_group` lack explicit network access controls and may be insecure. This rule flags any `nifcloud_router` missing `security_group` and reports attributes: `documentId`, `resourceType`, `resourceName`, `searchKey`, `issueType`, `keyExpectedValue`, `keyActualValue`.

## Compliant Code Examples{% #compliant-code-examples %}

```terraform
resource "nifcloud_router" "negative" {
  security_group = nifcloud_security_group.router.group_name

  network_interface {
    network_id = "net-COMMON_GLOBAL"
  }
}
```

## Non-Compliant Code Examples{% #non-compliant-code-examples %}

```terraform
resource "nifcloud_router" "positive" {
  network_interface {
    network_id = "net-COMMON_GLOBAL"
  }
}
```
