Documentation

aws-inspector

Amazon Inspector (v2) continuous vulnerability scanning for EC2, ECR images, Lambda dependencies and Lambda code, with optional organization delegation and findings routed to EventBridge. Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), AWS provider >= 6.0, < 7.0.

Defaults worth knowing:

  • Each scan type is a separate decision with its billing dimension written next to it. ECR bills per image scanned, EC2 per instance-hour, Lambda per function, and Lambda code separately again. Enabling all four in an account running thousands of functions is a very different bill from ECR alone
  • ECR is the one default-on scan: images are the artefact most often shipped without anybody re-checking them after the CVE lands
  • Findings forward at CRITICAL and HIGH only. MEDIUM and below across a large estate is a firehose that trains people to ignore the channel

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.

Usage code & full reference need an account

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-guardduty

Threat detection with each protection plan - S3, EKS, RDS, Lambda, malware, runtime - a separate decision with its billing dimension stated, plus organization delegation and findings filtered by severity into EventBridge.

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.
