What it does
Scans your AWS account for misconfigurations and privilege escalation paths, then hands back a plain-English report (HTML/PDF) with the exact fix not a wall of unreadable JSON. Runs on your own local credentials, zero telemetry. Open source. A streamlined AWS security scanner designed for effortless setup and execution. No need to memorize commands or flags !! Cloud Security Simplified.
Plexavo: cloud security for modern infrastructure. Discover misconfigurations, prioritize risk, and fix what matters.
Plexavo helps modern teams find dangerous cloud misconfigurations, understand their real impact, and turn security findings into actions. Modern infrastructure moves fast. One forgotten permission, exposed resource, or weak identity control can quietly become the easiest way into your environment. Plexavo is designed to give developers and small teams a clear security layer around their cloud, without burying them in endless alerts. Run against real accounts, not a best-practices PDF. Each finding is something specifically true about your setup. Privilege-escalation paths, wildcard admin, cross-account trust, root usage, dormant credentials. Security groups and RDS instances exposed to…from plexavo.com

KeyLeak Detector – Scan websites for exposed API keys and secretsNov 2025 · github.com · ▲30I built this after seeing multiple teams accidentally ship API keys in their frontend code. The problem: Modern web development moves fast. You're vibe-coding, shipping features, and suddenly your AWS keys are sitting in a tag visible to anyone who opens DevTools. I've personally witnessed this happen to at least 3-4 production apps in the past year alone. KeyLeak Detector runs through your site (headless browser + network interception) and checks for 50+ types of leaked secrets: AWS/Google keys, Stripe tokens, database connection strings, LLM API keys (OpenAI, Claude, etc.), JWT…
OpsFlow – Low-code DevOps – Webflow for infrastructure2022 · opsflow.app · ▲71Opsflow cofounder here! We launched a bunch of things recently, some of them well received (Terragen, AWS Bootstrap). It's no secret that AWS is hard, and our mission is to make it simple. What HN crowd helped us realise is that the UI was still not simple enough. Rather confusing in fact. So in the last couple weeks we have radically simplified it based on your feedback. We have removed the unnecessarily complex concepts like Services and Environments - it's just Apps now. All options are now on the new Settings screen. Instead of Infrastructure and Software deployments there is now a…
Browser-based XSS scanner2024 · github.com · ▲57This is a simple single-file python program that can find basic XSS (cross-site scripting) vulnerabilities in a target url. Most XSS discovery tools use a payload refelection strategy in which payloads are injected in url parameters and the GET response is inspected for places where the payload content is reflected. This is a very low precision XSS detection strategy because most reflection does not support execution. This program uses a different approach, and instead opens the target url in a browser, tests alert(...) payloads directly in the browser context, and listens for an alert being…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

Clipto MCP▲655Hey HN, We recently built Clipto. It’s a tool that lets you search over terabytes of video, audio, and images on your computer, without relying on the cloud. Motivation: we probably all had this similar experience, we know a moment exists in a video or audio, but finding it takes hours scrubbing the timeline. You can send all the media to process in the cloud, but it’s slow, expensive and raises privacy concerns. So we decided to build our own on-device media search engine. How it works (high level): 1. We ingest video, audio, image; normalize formats via ffmpeg; run content analysis to…

Hello HN! I found that picking out plausible but diverse skin tones for my digital art and game development projects was kind of difficult, and I got curious about if there was a way to define a color space that made it easy. I've built a color picker and procedural generation algorithm based on the space as well as a bunch of other fun js features and demos throughout the page that use the equations. If you find it interesting, I have lots of explanations of how I built it and what properties the space has. The methodology might be a bit shaky, but hopefully the result is as helpful for…
