Krampus is an AWS resource management and security remediation tool that automates the deletion and disabling of various AWS objects including EC2 instances, S3 buckets, and other cloud resources. The tool operates using JSON task files that specify which resources to action and what operations to perform. It includes whitelist functionality to protect critical resources and accounts from accidental modification or deletion. Krampus can be deployed in two ways: locally via command line interface or as a Lambda function within AWS infrastructure. The tool requires proper IAM permissions to access and modify AWS resources across the target environment. The solution accepts task definitions through S3 bucket uploads, allowing for automated workflows and integration with other security tools. It functions as both a security remediation tool for addressing identified threats and a cost-control mechanism for managing cloud resource expenses. Krampus focuses on execution of predefined actions rather than threat detection, requiring external tools like Netflix's Security Monkey for identifying security issues that need remediation.
