Filter out redundant regional AWS CloudTrail Trails
There was a problem that the LLM was not able to address. Please rephrase your prompt and try again.
This task detects redundant regional trails within AWS CloudTrail. Occasionally, users might inadvertently create multiple trails in the same region, which not only results in redundant data collection but also incurs additional costs. These unnecessary trails can capture identical events and consume extra storage, leading to inefficiency and clutter. This task scans through all the regional trails in each AWS region and pinpoints the redundant ones. By identifying redundant trails, the script aids administrators in optimizing their AWS CloudTrail configuration, thereby promoting efficient resource utilization and cost-effectiveness.
