About ScoutSuite
Scout Suite is an open-source, multi-cloud security auditing tool designed to assess the security posture of cloud environments. It gathers configuration data using cloud provider APIs, presenting a clear view of the attack surface and highlighting risk areas for manual inspection. This eliminates the need to navigate numerous web console pages, streamlining the auditing process.
Developed by security consultants and auditors, Scout Suite provides a point-in-time, security-oriented view of a cloud account. Once data is collected, all subsequent analysis can be performed offline. It supports major cloud providers including Amazon Web Services, Microsoft Azure, Google Cloud Platform, Alibaba Cloud (alpha), Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (alpha), Kubernetes clusters (alpha), and DigitalOcean Cloud (alpha).
The tool is run via a command-line interface and generates comprehensive HTML reports detailing findings and cloud account configurations. It's ideal for security professionals, auditors, and organizations looking to identify and mitigate security risks across their diverse cloud infrastructure.
