Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Azure and M365 Secure Config Review
Prowler and ScoutSuite are a good start for cloud stuff.

Open source alternative cloud security tool that works like Wiz/Lacework/Aqua
Another solution might be ScoutSuite, they have support for all major clouds - aws,gcp and azure. But its probably not maintained as well. ScoutSuite

Creating a jump host in 2023
If you're planning to use Active Directory and/or Azure AD, run ADRecon/AzureADRecon and Bloodhound frequently and review in depth. Run ScoutSuite frequently and review as part of a normal operational cycle (e.g., at weekly team meetings make the results available and set aside 15 minutes to discuss and make assignments). Look critically at where these three tools overlap within two or three degrees of separation from your jump hosts (e.g., hosts/nodes that are one or two devices away and users/security groups that are one or two devices away) for help prioritizing when you have too many high-risk/high-impact items to look through.

How to do AWS security assesment?

I'd take a look at ScoutSuite. It runs on your infra and spits back a remarkably readable report.

Cutting down AWS cost by $150k per year simply by shutting things off
> The best optimization is simply shutting things off
This is the way.
A similar idea has been bouncing around in my mind for a while now. An ideal, turnkey system would do the following:
- Execute via Lambda (serverless).
- Support automated startup and shutdown of various AWS resources on a schedule influenced by specially formatted tags.
- Enable resources to be brought back up out of schedule when demand dictates.
- Operate as a TCP/HTTP proxy that can delay clients so that a given service can be started when it is dormant or, even better, the service isn't serverless but you want it to be. This can't work for everything, but perhaps enough things such that the need to run always on services is reduced.
Cloud Custodian [1] can purportedly do some of this, but I've been reluctant to learn yet another YAML-based DSL to use it.
So this is my "make things designed to be always-on serverless instead" project and the work AWS has done to make Java apps function on Lambda keeps me thinking about the potential to take things that 1) have a relatively long startup time and 2) are designed to be long running service loops, and find a way to force them into the serverless execution model.

EC2 start and stop via Lambda
I'd use a combination of Cloudcustodian for start/stop scheduling and Apprise for notifications.

Common avenues for reducing waste in AWS (Specifically EC2)
You can try Cloudcustodian. Very good tool to help you make a list of all underutilized instances. This also helps you do a lot more than that. https://cloudcustodian.io/

Favorite Resources of 2021
Cloud Custodian; rules engine for cloud security, cost optimization, and governance, DSL in yaml for policies to query, filter, and take actions on resources

I added AWS CIS 1.2 compliance checks to GraphQL API for AWS!
Another alternative that I personally would use is CloudCustodian. It is a widely used tool for continuous cloud governance, detection and remediation. There is a CIS pack for it.
