Partner content AWS provides a number of safety services, such as Guardduty, Inspector, Config and Security Hub, designed to protect your cloud environment.
However, dependence can only be left on these critical security gaps. Below is a clear collapse of AWS security services and their restrictions, so that you know exactly what you get, what you are not, and how the intruder compares.
Amazon Guarddlement
Amazon Guardduty is a threat discovery service that monitors your AWS account and harmful activity resources. It analyzes Cloudtrail records, VPC flow records, DNS records to determine suspicious behavior such as unusual API calls, unauthorized access attempts, and badly known IP addresses.
Includes their use cases:
– Detecting allocated EC2 counterparts.
Determine unusual access patterns.
– A sign of Exfiltration attempts potential data.
Amazon Guardduty mainly focuses on discovering active threats at the infrastructure level. It does not directly address the weaknesses in the application, the processes of fixed configurations, open services, or excessive groups in the period.
Pricing depends on the size of the analyzed records. For 500-1000 resources, you can expect a monthly cost ranging from $ 50 to $ 200, but this is a very approximate estimate.
Amazon inspector
Amazon Inspector is a weak management service that automatically evaluates EC2 counterparts and Lambda functions for software weaknesses and deviations of best practices in safety.
Includes their use cases:
Determine the operating system and weaknesses.
Discover open ports, weak passwords and other common configurations.
Generating security reports.
Amazon Inspector only focuses on EC2 counterparts and Lambda functions – it does not cover other AWS services, access to the audience's open assets, or providing any external visual weakness. It also requires the confirmation of agents on your counterparts.
Pricing depends on the number of assessments that are operated. For 500-1000 resources, you can expect a monthly cost that starts about 50 dollars, but it relies heavily on the evaluation frequency.
AWS formation
AWS Config provides a detailed stock of your AWS resources and configurations. It allows you to track changes to your resources over time and ensure compliance with internal policies and regulatory requirements.
Includes their use cases:
Track and check resource formations.
Ensuring compliance with best security practices.
Aws Config provides vision in resource formations and includes pre -designed rules to verify poor formations. However, these rules are limited in risk assessment and Trinity and do not provide risk classifications.
The AWS price is based on the number of registered configuration elements. For 500-1000 resources, you may see a monthly cost that starts about $ 100, but depends on the complexity and repetition of changes.
Aws Security Hub
AWS Security Hub works as a central control unit to manage your safety results from various AWS security services, including Guarddde, Inspector and Macie. It provides a unified offer for your safety position and helps you set the priorities of safety alerts.
Includes their use cases:
Unifying security results.
Give priority to alerts and automation of responses.
Aws Security Hub collects results from other services (except for training) and does not generate its own results.
Pricing depends on the number of security checks that have been implemented. It can be an approximate estimate of 500-1000 resources in a range between 50 and 150 dollars per month.
How to compare the intruder
Intruder provides a cloud security survey without an agent, a scanning, and the management surface management (ASM) on one powerful and easy -to -use platform, complete with detailed advice, contextual visions, and severity classes for setting simplified priorities.
Includes their use cases:
– Operating the agent, daily scanning for poor formations, unsafe permissions, open secrets, and more.
– Combining external weakness with information from AWS accounts to determine the risks that may miss other solutions.
Receive clear and implementable guidance and give smart priority to focus on issues that are really concerned.
How is the intruder
The intruder differs from AWS services in the following ways:
– Guarddty: The intruder detects the weaknesses in the application, poor configuration, open services, and excessive iam groups that were not determined by Guardduty.
Inspector: The infiltrator provides an EC2 and Amazon Route 53 agent and other cloud resources, in addition to the wide external scanning, which is not provided by the inspector.
Training: The intruder provides clear risk classifications to determine the effective priorities that are not presented by the formation.
Security axis: The infiltrator unifies all security results (bad waste, weaknesses, and open services), provides security position visions, and tracks major standards such as time to reform.
Smoke does not currently discover active threats like Amazon Guarddlement.
