Cloud Custodian

Cloud Custodian is an open-source tool that helps organizations manage and secure their cloud resources, such as those on platforms like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. It uses policies—rules defined in code—to automatically monitor, enforce, and optimize cloud environments. For example, it can identify unused resources to save costs, enforce security standards, or delete data that isn’t needed anymore. By automating these tasks, Cloud Custodian helps organizations improve security, compliance, and efficiency without manual intervention.
