Example Security Lake queries for Security Hub findings

Security Hub provides you with a comprehensive view of your security state in AWS and helps you check your environment against security industry standards and best practices. Security Hub produces findings for security checks and receives findings from third-party services.

Here are some example queries of Security Hub findings:
