A free account sees the contract of every module in the catalogue. There is no subscription and nothing to buy - the modules are free to download, and they run under Vizier.
Documentation
aws-guardduty
GuardDuty detector with per-plan protection switches, optional organization
delegation, and findings routed to EventBridge above a severity you choose.
Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), AWS provider
>= 6.0, < 7.0.
Defaults worth knowing:
- Every protection plan is off by default and each says what it costs. S3, EKS, RDS, Lambda, malware scanning and runtime monitoring are billed on separate dimensions, and the right answer depends entirely on what the account runs. Switching them all on is good security advice and a bad bill, so each is a decision here
- Findings publish every fifteen minutes, the fastest setting, because it costs nothing extra and the alternative is noticing six hours later
- The findings rule filters on severity, so the forwarding target is not woken by every low finding. GuardDuty scores 1-8.9; 4 is the bottom of MEDIUM and 7 the bottom of HIGH
Verification
Static validation runs tofu fmt, init, validate, tflint and checkov.
This module has not yet had a live test, so it is published as statically
validated with its live test pending and does not carry the live-tested mark.

Related modules
aws-signer
Signing profiles for Lambda packages and container images, plus the code signing configuration that enforces them. Defaults to Enforce rather than the API default Warn, which logs an untrusted artifact and deploys it anyway.
aws-cognito
A secure-by-default Cognito user pool and app client with optional hosted-UI domain - strong password policy, TOTP MFA, account-enumeration protection, SRP-only flows, and refresh-token revocation.
aws-detective
Builds an investigable graph from CloudTrail, VPC flow logs and GuardDuty findings, with member accounts and organization delegation. It detects nothing itself - it makes an existing finding into a timeline.
aws-firewall-manager
WAF, security group and Network Firewall policy applied across an organization. Remediation is off by default so the first apply is a report rather than an edit to resources in every member account.
aws-iam-access-analyzer
Finds what a principal outside your zone of trust could actually reach, which is the question policy reviews get wrong by reading JSON. External analysis is free; unused-access analysis is a separate, billed analyzer.
aws-iam-roles
Least-privilege IAM roles, managed policies, and GitHub/EKS OIDC federation in one composable module.
