Custom - AWS Security Incident Response Guide

Custom

The aforementioned services and features are not an exhaustive list. AWS is continuously adding new capabilities. For more information, we encourage you to review the What's New at AWS and AWS Cloud Security pages. In addition to the security services that AWS offers as native cloud services, you might be interested in building your own capabilities on top of AWS services.

Although we recommend enabling a base set of security services within your accounts, such as AWS CloudTrail, Amazon GuardDuty, and Amazon Macie, you might eventually want to extend these capabilities to derive additional value from your log assets. There are a number of partner tools available, such as those listed in our APN Security Competency program. You might also want to write your own queries to search your logs. With the extensive number of managed services that AWS offers, this has never been easier. There are many additional AWS services that can assist you with investigation that are outside the scope of this paper, such as Amazon Athena, Amazon OpenSearch Service, Amazon QuickSight, Amazon Machine Learning, and Amazon EMR.
