Monitor the solution with the myApplications dashboard - Security Insights on AWS

Monitor the solution with the myApplications dashboard

The myApplications dashboard is an extension of the AWS Management Console home that helps you manage and monitor the cost, health, security posture, and performance of your applications on AWS. This solution and its resources appear together as one application. The myApplications dashboard includes the following:

  • The Monitoring and Operations widget displays alarms and alerts for resources associated with your application, service level objectives (SLOs), and standardized application performance metrics from CloudWatch Application Signals. You can monitor ongoing issues, assess trends, and quickly identify and investigate issues that might impact your application.

  • The Security widget shows the highest priority security findings identified by Security Hub. Findings are listed by severity and service, so you can monitor their security posture and take action.

  • The DevOps widget summarizes operational insights from AWS System Manager Application Manager, such as fleet management, state management, patch management, and configuration management status, so you can assess compliance and take action.

To set up the myApplications dashboard in your account, follow the Creating your first application in myApplications instructions in the AWS Management Console Getting Started Guide.
