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.

Any AWS networking visualization tool?
Cartography (Python application) will get you part of the way there, in that it will discover the state of the environment, record node information and relationships in a graph database, and can be easily extended. You can also then easily write queries about the relationships of various resources to answer questions like “what can I reach from VPC X”. Drawing diagrams though is very hard to do well without extra input.

ZeusCloud - Open-source Cloud Security built on Neo4j
Build an asset inventory of the cloud environment. (using an OSS project called cartography)

ZeusCloud: An open source cloud security platform
The project is still early, so we’d love your feedback! We’ve based our cloud asset inventory on another great OSS project called cartography. So far, we’ve added misconfiguration checks and common identity-based attack paths. Up next on our roadmap are network/access graph visualizations, vulnerability scanning, and secret scanning!
- Graph Databases
- Open Source tool that dumps infrastructure data into a graph database to query

Starting your Cloud Security Journey
The first step involved in threat modelling is to build an architecture diagram of the system you are protecting. This also involves building a list of assets in the system. You cannot protect something which you don’t have visibility over. We can use tools such as CloudMapper from the previous step for building an architecture diagram of an AWS cloud environment. There are similar tools for threat modeling for other cloud service providers like Cartography.
- I built an open-source GraphQL powered search engine for your AWS infrastructure.

Identify AWS Security Groups attached to public resources
Lyft made a tool called Cartography, which scrapes your AWS Account(s) and inserts representations of many of your cloud resources into a Neo4j (graph) database. This makes it easy to query and discover how things are connected in your account.

My Experience Contributing To The Cartography Open Source Project
Recently, we at Cloudanix made open source contributions to the Cartography project by Lyft. We contributed to the pre-existing AWS module by adding support for KMS and API gateway. Since the Cartography project did not have support for Microsoft Azure, we started from scratch to add that capability to Cartography. We added support for Azure services like CosmosDB, SQL, Storage, and Virtual Machines.

AWS Creates New Policy-Based Access Control Language Cedar
All of the sdks support client side monitoring (CSM), so these sort of tools can be built client side. https://boto3.amazonaws.com/v1/documentation/api/1.10.46/gui...
afaics the only challenge is mapping some of the apis to iam as its only 85% 1:1
There's also tools for helping with iam like (generator, and linter)

Policy Sentry - IAM Least Privilege Policy Generator
It is an open source initiative from Salesforce. Using Policy Sentry, it is easy to automate the creation of IAM policies with little knowledge on security.
-
Starting your Cloud Security Journey
You can use tools like policy_sentry to create least privilege IAM policies.
-
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:

Show HN: Endgame – An AWS Pentesting tool to backdoor or expose AWS resources
@kmcquade ur awesome ! we are users of https://github.com/salesforce/policy_sentry and definitely definitely https://github.com/salesforce/cloudsplaining .
If I could give you guys money, I would. You should totally build a startup around it.
What are some alternatives?
cloudquery - The open source high performance ELT framework powered by Apache Arrow
iamlive - Generate an IAM policy from AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud (GCP) calls using client-side monitoring (CSM) or embedded proxy
CloudGraph cli - The universal GraphQL API and CSPM tool for AWS, Azure, GCP, K8s, and tencent.
consoleme - A Central Control Plane for AWS Permissions and Access
ScoutSuite - Multi-Cloud Security Auditing Tool
PMapper - A tool for quickly evaluating IAM permissions in AWS.
libretaxi - Open source Uber #deleteuber
terraform-aws-policy-sentry - Terraform module for Policy Sentry.
clutch - Extensible platform for infrastructure management
cloudsplaining - Cloudsplaining is an AWS IAM Security Assessment tool that identifies violations of least privilege and generates a risk-prioritized report.
Scout2 - Security auditing tool for AWS environments
aws-leastprivilege - Generates an IAM policy for the CloudFormation service role that adheres to least privilege.
