NOTE: Aura mods increase amount of total mod-slots available to mod with on your warframe if the Polarity is matching the polarity your warframe have (can be changed by forma) – it actually doubles the capacity of the aura mod so if you have say 7 capacity on your aura mod, you GAIN 14 extra mod capacity for your warframe – hence the importance of matching polarities on aura mod slot.
Also note that Aura mods such as Corrosive Projection as well as Shield Disrupt and Energy Siphon are auras that stack within a group – if all have it they all stack with each other!
Corrosive Projection is a must-have for all missions vs. higher-level enemies that you need to kill – if all in team has it basically removes all their armor making them so much easier to kill.
Energy Siphon is useful for Passive energy regeneration – I personally think its useful for Spy missions when I go Loki and don’t want to run out so easily of energy.

NOTE: All augmentation mods platinum prices on warframe.market seem to be around 15 plat on the day of writing the article, and all augmentation mods cost 25k standing with syndicates.
There probably are a lot more useful augmentation mods – but these are the ones we have used quite a lot ourselves so far – feel free to give us suggestions to our email however if you wish us to extend this list :) Keep in mind that the mods you suggest should preferably serve a useful purpose – all but chromatic blade above help groups to farm in one way or another.
