Prowler provides an open-source cloud security platform designed to help organizations assess and monitor their cloud environments. The platform is highly configurable, allowing security teams to tailor their security assessments and monitoring strategies to their specific needs. Originally created in 2016 by founder Toni de la Fuente, a former AWS security practitioner, Prowler has grown to become a widely adopted tool in the cloud security space with over 12,000 GitHub stars.

The platform addresses the challenge of managing security in complex and diverse modern cloud environments, where organizations struggle to extract actionable insights from large volumes of security data. Prowler's open-source approach provides transparency and adaptability, enabling security professionals to customize their security posture management rather than relying on traditional black-box tools.

The company operates with a community-driven model, building solutions that are both open and adaptable to changing cloud security requirements. Their platform supports security assessments across cloud environments, helping organizations identify misconfigurations, compliance issues, and security risks. The team includes executives with backgrounds from AWS, SentinelOne, Splunk, and Cisco, bringing experience in cloud security, product development, and enterprise software delivery.
