## About Prowler
|
||
|
||
**Prowler** is an Open Source security tool to perform AWS and Azure security best practices assessments, audits, incident response, continuous monitoring, hardening and forensics readiness.
|
||
|
||
It contains hundreds of controls covering CIS, PCI-DSS, ISO27001, GDPR, HIPAA, FFIEC, SOC2, AWS FTR, ENS and custom security frameworks.
|
||
|
||
## Quick Start
|
||
|
||
### Installation
|
||
|
||
Prowler is available as a project in [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/prowler-cloud/), thus can be installed using pip:
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
pip install prowler-cloud
|
||
prowler -v
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
## Prowler container versions

|
||
|
||
- latest: in sync with master branch (bear in mind that it is not a stable version)
|
||
- <x.y.z> (release): you can find the releases [here](https://github.com/prowler-cloud/prowler/releases), those are stable releases.
|
||

|
||
|
||
The container images are available here:

||

||

|
||
- [AWS Public ECR](https://gallery.ecr.aws/o4g1s5r6/prowler)
|
||
|
||
## High level architecture
|
||
|
||
You can run Prowler from your workstation, an EC2 instance, Fargate or any other container, Codebuild, CloudShell and Cloud9.
|
||
|
||
|
||
## Basic Usage
|
||
|
||
To run prowler, you will need to specify the provider (e.g aws or azure):
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler <provider>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> Running the `prowler` command without options will use your environment variable credentials, see [Requirements](getting-started/requirements/) section to review the credentials settings.
|
||
|
||
By default, prowler will generate a CSV and a JSON report, however you could generate an HTML or an JSON-ASFF report with `-M` or `--output-modes`:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler <provider> -M csv json json-asff html
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can use `-l`/`--list-checks` or `--list-services` to list all available checks or services within the provider.
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler <provider> --list-checks
|
||
prowler <provider> --list-services
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
For executing specific checks or services you can use options `-c`/`checks` or `-s`/`services`:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler azure --checks storage_blob_public_access_level_is_disabled
|
||
prowler aws --services s3 ec2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Also, checks and services can be excluded with options `-e`/`--excluded-checks` or `--excluded-services`:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler aws --excluded-checks s3_bucket_public_access
|
||
prowler azure --excluded-services defender iam
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
You can always use `-h`/`--help` to access to the usage information and all the possible options:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler -h
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### AWS
|
||
|
||
Use a custom AWS profile with `-p`/`--profile` and/or AWS regions which you want to audit with `-f`/`--filter-region`:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler aws --profile custom-profile -f us-east-1 eu-south-2
|
||
```
|
||
> By default, `prowler` will scan all AWS regions.
|
||
|
||
### Azure
|
||
|
||
With Azure you need to specify which auth method is going to be used:
|
||
|
||
```console
|
||
# To use service principal authentication
|
||
prowler azure --sp-env-auth
|
||
|
||
# To use az cli authentication
|
||
prowler azure --az-cli-auth
|
||
|
||
# To use browser authentication
|
||
prowler azure --browser-auth
|
||
|
||
# To use managed identity auth
|
||
prowler azure --managed-identity-auth
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
More details in [Requirements](getting-started/requirements.md)
|
||
|
||
Prowler by default scans all the subscriptions that is allowed to scan, if you want to scan a single subscription or various concrete subscriptions you can use the following flag (using az cli auth as example):
|
||
```console
|
||
prowler azure --az-cli-auth --subscription-ids <subscription ID 1> <subscription ID 2> ... <subscription ID N>
|
||
```
