AWS open source news and updates #81
AWSXenos if you are looking for open source tools to help you understand and then tighten up your IAM policies and permissions, then check this tool out from AirWalk. AWSXenos will list all the trust relationships in all the IAM roles, and S3 buckets, in an AWS account and give you a breakdown of all the accounts that have trust relationships to your account. If you are thinking that AWS Access Analyser does this, then you are no wrong, however, they have put together some reasons why this project might help you address additional features not available in Access Analyser.
- AWSXenos will list all the trust relationships in all the IAM roles and S3 buckets
- AWSXenos will detect and classify all the cross account trust relationships in all the IAM roles and S3 buckets, in you AWS Account.

Launch HN: Slauth (YC S22) – auto-generate secure IAM policies for AWS and GCP
Why are you using (very expensive) GPT, or any LLM for that matter, when this was already a solved problem using rulesets? Netflix for example has open source that does this already: https://github.com/Netflix/consoleme
Instead of analyzing your code, you just run your code with no permissions and it automatically detects permission failures and thens open those permissions, with a UI showing you what it did so you can remove any permissions you don't want.
That actually seems much more secure than trying to divine the rules from reading the code.
What value is the LLM adding here?

AWS IAM Roles, a tale of unnecessary complexity
This is the way. I’ve seen this happen countless times. It’s happened to me too. It’s happened to colleagues.
The worst case I’m aware of from first-hand knowledge was a large cluster of resources that got deployed for a product demo by a sales engineer and forgotten about. Turned into a nice ~$100,000 surprise in the quarterly budget.
Netflix built a tool for managing IAM permission requests as an auditable workflow, called ConsoleMe: https://github.com/Netflix/consoleme

How do you handle IAM requests?
There’s this tool as well https://github.com/Netflix/consoleme among others, check them out and see if the overhead is ok for you all now, but keep it simple to start.

I built a tool which automatically suggests least-privilege IAM policies
The tool is in a similar space to iamlive, policy_sentry, and consoleme (all of which are worth checking out too if you're interested in making AWS security easier) but the main points of difference I see are:
-
Zero knowledge of multiple accounts/cross accounts rolea/budgets/consolidated bill etc. Any good resources to read ?
After you read the resources, you can stand on the "shoulders of giants" https://github.com/Netflix/consoleme
What are some alternatives?
