AWS Security Hub

#118 · Level 3 · Modern architecture · Security

AWS Security Hub is a service for seeing your overall security status in one place. It gathers findings from AWS services such as GuardDuty, Inspector and Macie, and from some outside tools, into one place. Findings are kept in a common format, so comparing and sorting them is easy. It checks account settings against standards such as AWS Foundational Security Best Practices or CIS. Many of its checks depend on AWS Config, and findings can be sent through EventBridge to automated actions.

A building’s security control room — news from every camera, alarm and guard on one screen.

If you look at GuardDuty, Inspector and Macie each in a different place, it is hard to understand the overall status.

Seeing an overall security score, and fixing the most urgent problems first.
