About Cloudmapper

CloudMapper is an open source cybersecurity tool designed to help enterprises analyze and audit their Amazon Web Services (AWS) environments. Originally developed to generate network diagrams, it has evolved to provide comprehensive security auditing capabilities, including identifying misconfigurations, unused resources, and privileged IAM roles. The tool is intended for security teams and cloud architects responsible for maintaining secure cloud infrastructure. CloudMapper enables continuous auditing and visibility into AWS accounts, helping organizations detect potential security risks and optimize resource usage.

The primary value proposition of CloudMapper lies in its ability to automate the collection and analysis of AWS metadata, offering actionable insights without the need for proprietary software. It supports various commands such as auditing for misconfigurations, finding administrative users, spotting unused resources, and generating detailed reports. Being open source, it allows enterprises to customize and extend its functionality to fit specific security policies and compliance requirements. CloudMapper is best suited for organizations with mature cloud security practices seeking a transparent and flexible tool to enhance their Cloud Security Posture Management (CSPM).

API Security Platforms
The API is now the primary attack surface, and a WAF pointed at it isn't API security. Evaluate Salt, Akamai (Noname), Imperva, F5, Traceable, Wallarm, Cequence, and Data Theorem on whether they actually discover your shadow APIs and catch BOLA and business-logic abuse at runtime — not just sign endpoints off as “protected.”
Attack Surface Management (ASM / CTEM)
Evaluate Wiz, CrowdStrike Falcon Surface, Microsoft Defender EASM, Cortex Xpanse, Censys, CyCognito, Tenable, and runZero across EASM, CAASM, and platform-embedded camps — judged on discovery accuracy and how cleanly the surface feeds prioritization, not how many assets it claims to find.
Cloud Access Security Broker (CASB)
Evaluate Netskope, Microsoft Defender for Cloud Apps, Zscaler, and Palo Alto for SaaS security, shadow IT discovery, and data protection.
