Identify potential security issues and analyze the behavior of the applications that you run in Amazon Web Service.
In our digital age, where cyber attacks are more and more sophisticated, it
is complex to get a complete picture of the application and its potential
security or compliance issues.
But this lookout is required to bring peace in minds and to help streamline
experiences at each level.
AWS as others key players in the cloud industry, is at the core the digital
revolution that also requires holistic management of security issues.
The new Amazon Inspector (preview) charts its way when it comes to detect
and mitigate potential security or compliance issues.
The tool can analyze the behavior of the applications that you run in AWS
and can help you to identify potential security issues.
Connectikpeople.co observes that, Inspector can collect information
including details of communication with AWS services, use of secure channels,
network traffic between instances, and so forth.
Amazon announced that, the initial launch of Inspector will include the
following sets of rules:
- Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures
- Network Security Best Practices
- Authentication Best Practices
- Operating System Security Best Practices
- Application Security Best Practices
- PCI DSS 3.0 Assessment
You can access the Inspector from the AWS Management Console, AWS Command Line Interface (CLI), or API.
