Security Tools for AWS

I often get asked which tools are good to use for securing your AWS infrastructure so I figured I'd write a short listof some useful Security Tools for the AWS Cloud Infrastructure.

This list is not intended be something completely exhaustive, more so provide a good launching pad for someone as they dig into AWS and want to make it secure from the start.

Open Source

This section focuses on tools and services provided by the community and released as open-source.

from botocore.exceptions import ClientError

import requests

ec2 = boto3.client('ec2')

def get_ip():
    r = requests.get('http://checkip.amazonaws.com')
    return r.text.strip()
