prowler
Prowler is the world’s most widely used open-source cloud security platform that automates security and compliance across any cloud environment.
Project mention: I audited Prowler's 48 IAM checks against a linter I built, and found a real gap | dev.to | 2026-08-27The proposal went in as issue #12559, a new check called iam_policy_sensitive_actions_require_mfa_condition, severity medium (matching how I'd rated the equivalent rule in iam-lint, since it's a defense-in-depth gap rather than something independently exploitable the way a full-admin policy is). I linked back to iam-lint's has_mfa_condition() function as a working reference implementation, since I'd already built and tested the exact logic the check would need.

AppSignal
AppSignal knows why the f*#k it crashed. Stop vibe-debugging. Every exception, every backtrace, grouped so you see patterns, not noise.

> so you might as well use one of those.
Did someone say... Xonsh?! It's tough to give up the niceties of zsh and it's various plug-in ecosystems, but I would love to be able to use Xonsh [1] as a daily driver for exactly the reasons stated. It is already the language I lean on over bash for most utility scripts with its kitchen sink built-ins.

cicd-goat
A deliberately vulnerable CI/CD environment. Learn CI/CD security through multiple challenges.
-
ggshield
Detect and validate 500+ types of hardcoded secrets with advanced checks. Use it as a pre-commit hook, GitHub Action, or CLI for proactive secret detection and security.
Project mention: AI assisted commits leak secrets at roughly twice the rate, and the fix is process rather than policy | dev.to | 2026-10-10GitGuardian, company site and 2026 State of Secrets Sprawl report landing material: http://gitguardian.com/
-
safety
Safety checks Python dependencies for known security vulnerabilities and suggests the proper remediations for vulnerabilities detected.
-
cve-bin-tool
The CVE Binary Tool helps you determine if your system includes known vulnerabilities. You can scan binaries for over 350 common, vulnerable components (openssl, libpng, libxml2, expat and others), or if you know the components used, you can get a list of known vulnerabilities associated with an SBOM or a list of components and versions.
-
dep-scan
OWASP dep-scan is a next-generation security and risk audit tool based on known vulnerabilities, advisories, and license limitations for project dependencies. Both local repositories and container images are supported as the input, and the tool is ideal for integration.
Add a CI gate. Integrate Software Composition Analysis into your pipeline. Tools like OWASP dep-scan flag unknown or newly published packages before they reach production. Generate and sign Software Bills of Materials (SBOMs) for every build so each dependency is auditable. If a package does not appear in your organization's approved registry, the build should fail.
