mongoaudit – MongoDB Auditing & Pen-testing Tool

mongoaudit is a CLI tool for MongoDB auditing of servers, detecting poor security settings and performing automated penetration testing.

It is widely known that there are quite a few holes in MongoDB’s default configuration settings. This fact, combined with abundant lazy system administrators and developers, has led to what the press has called the MongoDB Ransack.

And just last week we wrote about Another MongoDB Hack Leaks Two Million Recordings Of Kids.

mongoaudit not only detects misconfigurations, known vulnerabilities and bugs but also gives you advice on how to fix them, recommends best practices and teaches you how to DevOp like a pro!
