DescribePublicBuckets

A Bash and Python script (your choice of flavour) for listing out any AWS S3 buckets you own that have either Public Read or Public Write ACLs. Protect your data!

Dependencies

For the Bash script:

awscli

For the Python script (pulled right from requirements.txt):

boto3==1.4.4

docutils==0.13.1
futures==3.1.1
jmespath==0.9.3
