Scout Suite is an open source multi-cloud security auditing tool that assesses the security posture of cloud environments. It gathers configuration data via cloud provider APIs and generates an offline HTML report highlighting risk areas and attack surface.

Use cases

• audit my AWS account for security misconfigurations
• assess security posture of Azure and GCP environments
• find open security groups and exposed ports in my cloud account
• generate an HTML report of cloud configuration risks
• check IAM users for missing MFA and key rotation
• run a point-in-time security review of a Kubernetes cluster on a cloud provider

When to choose

• you need a point-in-time, offline security assessment across AWS, Azure, or GCP
• you are a security consultant or auditor reviewing cloud account configuration
• you want an easy-to-read HTML report of cloud misconfigurations without touching web consoles

When to avoid

• you need continuous, real-time cloud security monitoring rather than point-in-time audits
• you require automated remediation of findings rather than reporting
• you need runtime threat detection or intrusion detection
