Chapter 7: Infrastructure Security Automation Using Security Hub and Systems Manager

In this chapter, we will explore AWS Security Hub, which is one of the security services of AWS.

The second solution will be importing an AWS Config rules evaluation as a finding in Security Hub using Lambda and AWS EventBridge rule. The third solution will be about the auto-creation of an incident in Incident Manager when there is a critical finding in Security Hub, and remediation using an OpsCenter runbook. Knowing how to use Security Hub will also help in the next chapter, where we will import Static Application Security Testing...
