Osquery: An sqlite3 virtual table exposing operating system data to SQL
be mindful of its AGPLv3 https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.21.8/LICENSE (AFAIK v0.4.3 is the last MIT release https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.4.3/LICENSE ) and the actual providers are Apache 2 <https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-plugin-aws/blob/v0.131.0...> (but I don't know if provider drift makes them compatible with 0.4 or not)
iasql seems to be AWS only, but good for them for taking this on:

Need to audit an Azure environment, any tip?
It's a very similar approach querying any of the plugins (AWS, Azure, etc) as it's a common interface to query those APIs with SQL. The AWS plugin is one of the more widely used in the community, along with it's associated mods to visualize resources and compliance to security & ops benchmarks.

Where are those CloudTrail IP addresses coming from?
Setting up CloudTrail is essential to understanding your users' AWS API activity: what happened, by whom and from where. One field in the event logs is source IP address. But that doesn't tell you where in the world those AWS API actions are coming from. In this post we'll show how to use Steampipe with the AWS and ipstack plugins to enrich your CloudTrail events with location information.

How to perform a security audit of your AWS account in AWS CloudShell
In my last post I showed how to install Steampipe and use it to instantly query your AWS APIs using SQL right in AWS CloudShell. For example here's a query that uses the Steampipe AWS plugin to query which AWS IAM users have MFA enabled:

Instantly query your AWS APIs in CloudShell
It takes just a few seconds to install Steampipe itself, along with the AWS plugin that maps AWS API calls to Postgres tables.

Categorizing Lambda functions based on their risk profile
Hint: We actually have some aws_cost_* tables in active development in this branch. Not ready for release yet, but we're excited about how they are coming together!

How to run an AWS CIS v3.0 assessment in CloudShell
In a prior post I showed how to install Steampipe in AWS CloudShell to instantly query over 460+ resource types from your AWS APIs using SQL, and another post on how to use the Steampipe AWS Compliance mod to assess over 25+ security benchmarks across your AWS accounts.

Cutting down AWS cost by $150k per year simply by shutting things off
Readers may find Steampipe's [1] AWS Thrifty Mod [2] useful. It will automatically scan multiple accounts and regions for 50 cost saving opportunities - many of which are looking for over-provisioned or unused resources. For example, it's crazy how much you can save by doing things like just converting your EBS volumes to the newer gp3 type. Combine with Flowpipe [3] to automate checks and actions. It's all open source and extensible.
