There's a feeling that's inside me
Telling me to get away
But I'm so tired of living
I might as well end today
Prowler 4.5.0 - Another Life 🚀 has arrived, packed with a host of new AWS checks and improvements! We also invite you to enjoy this classic Iron Maiden song.
A huge shout-out to our talented engineers @danibarranqueroo, @MarioRgzLpz, and @HugoPBrito for their amazing work on developing new checks, and a warm welcome to our new engineer @AdriiiPRodri!
Special thanks as well to @sansns for his outstanding contributions to new Fault Tolerance checks, and to our fantastic external contributors @SaintTamnoon, @jonathanbro, and @Nirbhay1997 for their valuable PRs 🥳.
New features to highlight in this version
AWS
🔒 Combat LLMJacking in AWS Bedrock
Following recent insights from Permiso Security on hijacking threats to GenAI infrastructure like AWS Bedrock, we’ve introduced five new checks in Prowler to bolster security:
bedrock_model_invocation_logging_enabled
cloudtrail_threat_detection_llm_jacking
bedrock_agent_guardrail_enabled
bedrock_guardrail_prompt_attack_filter_enabled
bedrock_guardrail_sensitive_information_filter_enabled
.
These checks enhance logging, encryption, and guardrail configurations to monitor and mitigate unauthorized access, safeguarding sensitive data and helping detect emerging LLMJacking threats.
🛡️ New Checks to Address IAM Access Analyzer Gaps
In their latest post on securityrunners.io, @SecurityRunners identified gaps in IAM Access Analyzer's ability to detect publicly exposed resources. To close these gaps, we’ve introduced new checks: cloudwatch_log_group_not_publicly_accessible
, ses_identities_not_publicly_accessible
, glue_data_catalogs_not_publicly_accessible
, and secretsmanager_not_publicly_accessible
, helping to reliably identify and secure public resources.
🚀 More checks!
Prowler has significantly expanded its AWS coverage, adding 104 new checks across 42 AWS services, including popular ones like Bedrock, DMS, FSx, GuardDuty, SES and WAF, to enhance your cloud security and compliance posture.

💪🏼 New checks for Azure Container Registry
A big thanks to @johannes-engler-mw for helping expand Prowler's Azure coverage with new checks for Azure Container Registry: containerregistry_uses_private_link
and containerregistry_not_publicly_accessible
.
Give them a try by scanning the Azure Container Registry with
prowler azure --service containerregistry
GCP
🔎 Scan your GCP Organization
Now you can limit the scan to projects within a specific Google Cloud organization by using the --organization-id
option with the GCP organization ID:
prowler gcp --organization-id organization-id
See more in our documentation
