## What it is
A curated list of open-source security tools for AWS, organized into defensive, offensive, purple teaming, continuous auditing, DFIR, and development security categories. It serves as a reference directory linking to tools like Prowler for cloud security assessment and hardening.

## Use cases
- find open source tools for aws security auditing
- discover tools for aws incident response and forensics
- hardening and security assessment tools for aws
- offensive security tools for pentesting aws
- continuous security auditing of aws accounts
- audit s3 buckets and iam permissions
- learn aws cloud security tooling

## When to choose
- you need a curated starting point for AWS security tooling across defensive and offensive use cases
- you want community-vetted open-source alternatives for cloud auditing, DFIR, or hardening
- you are building an AWS security assessment or incident response toolkit

## When to avoid
- you need a runnable tool rather than a list of links
- you need security tooling for non-AWS clouds only
- you want guaranteed maintenance of the listed tools, since the repo only curates external projects

## Facets
- artifact type: learning-resource
- maturity: active
- function: security, vulnerability-scanning, penetration-testing, developer-tools
- domain: security, cloud-computing, awesome-lists, penetration-testing
- platform: cloud, cross-platform
- tags: aws, cloud-security, curated-list, dfir, iam, cloudtrail, auditing, incident-response, offensive-security, devops, linux
