Cartography vs CloudFox
GitHub Stats
About Cartography
Cartography is a Python tool developed by Lyft that consolidates infrastructure assets and the relationships between them in an intuitive graph view powered by Neo4j. It ingests data from AWS, GCP, Azure, Okta, GitHub, and other services to build a comprehensive map of your cloud environment. Security teams use Cartography to identify attack paths, find misconfigurations, and understand blast radius by querying relationships between resources like EC2 instances, S3 buckets, IAM roles, and security groups. Its graph-based approach makes it easy to ask questions like 'which instances can reach this database' or 'which IAM users have admin access across accounts' that would be extremely difficult with flat inventory tools.
About CloudFox
CloudFox is a tool for identifying exploitable attack paths within cloud infrastructures. It enumerates IAM permissions, secrets, and network exposure to uncover potential vulnerabilities in AWS and Azure environments. Written in Go, CloudFox helps security professionals assess the security posture of cloud deployments by revealing misconfigurations and access control weaknesses. The tool is essential for cloud security audits and penetration testing.
