Prowler is a multi-cloud security scanner and security posture management tool. It automates security and compliance assessments across multiple cloud environments to identify misconfigurations and vulnerabilities.
The project provides a multi-cloud security analysis engine that operates as an automated auditor, evaluating infrastructure against industry-standard regulatory frameworks and security benchmarks. It features a cloud security visualization dashboard that uses a graph database to map cloud inventory and visualize potential attack paths.
Capabilities include automated cloud infrastructure scanning, regulatory compliance verification, and weighted risk prioritization to rank security findings. The system also supports multi-account orchestration and provides a software development kit for building custom security tooling.
The tool integrates into development workflows through programmatic interfaces for triggering scans and standardized file exports for pipeline integration.
