Monitoring is one part which is very essentials eg, VPC flow logs, s3 logs, API logs, system logs with aggregators etc . But analysing the logs as centralized hub , security hub provides the context. Along side coming to compliance , macie with its AI ML models , able to identify PII in S3. More that these, custome logs can also be formatter into ASAF using services like Lamba intervined. Which threat own threat intelligence capablitiy and custom integration to SIEM solution offers visibility across the environment. Apart from service, aws provides a lot of resources for industary standards and that keeps us upto date and skilled. Support is alwasys a second option , as I get everything from easy documented materials. Day to day getting used, gave a clear explames of scenarios where I can act upon a breach or an event with the available service. which helped me to understand the risks and what security controls are needed.

Image recongnikition where photocopies of Sensitive information are elsewhere, not sure where to get the docs. But with few service capablities, was able to do it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS has good number of services which are best among all Cloud service providers for me like AWS Transist Gateway to support Hub and Spoke architecture, AWS WAF and Shield for L3,L4 & L7 attacks, AWS IAM, AWS Gurd duty, AWS Inspector etc Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

AWS vloud security only disappointment is its convoluted interface and lacks user-friendly features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Comprehensive security suite: AWS offers a vast array of security tools and services, covering everything from access management to data encryption and threat detection. This one-stop shop simplifies security implementation and reduces the need for third-party solutions.
Granular control: AWS allows you to fine-tune security settings based on your specific needs and risk tolerance. This level of customization empowers organizations to build a security posture that aligns with their unique environment.
Compliance-focused: AWS provides built-in features and pre-configured compliance frameworks that help organizations meet industry regulations and internal policies. This can significantly streamline compliance audits and reporting processes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Complexity: The sheer breadth of AWS security offerings can be overwhelming for new users. Navigating the different services and understanding their interactions can be a steep learning curve, even for experienced IT professionals.
Pricing: While AWS offers a free tier for some services, many essential security features come at a cost. The pricing structure can be complex, making it difficult to accurately estimate and budget for security expenses.
Limited visibility: While AWS provides tools for monitoring and analyzing security events, the default dashboards can lack depth and customization options. For organizations with complex security needs, building comprehensive security reports may require additional tools or expertise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
IAM - Multi-factor authentication (MFA) adds another layer of security to AWS IAM by providing fine-grained control over user permissions.
Security Services: In comparison to other cloud vendors in the market, AWS offers many security services.

AWS shield is a service by amazon aws which provides managed solution for protecting your particular service or application on AWS from Distributed Denial of Service attack.This attack is one of the common attack from the hacker which gives constant request to your application making it insufficient to serve the real world users and so protection from such an attack is mandatory.As it is a well known attack there are many solutions also available for the same but as you are running a aws service I prefer using AWS Shield.It has salient features like easy integration and deployment,easily scalable and above all cost efficient.So it is a mandatory security service for any aws application.

I think they should try to give more protection against other attacks also,like integrate more security measures so that we could get everything from one place itself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like how easy it is to set up the Shield. Moreover, apart from setting it up, a person does not need much knowledge in it whatsoever. Security Team does not need to explain what sort of attacks take place and how to protect from them but just assign a system administrator to work on the following problem.

I would say that one thing that I do not like there is to have limited options on protection from SQL injections and limited abilities for protection from DoS. I would like to have an ability to coordinate a specific protection and trigger it at specific time. Some functions of it interfere with other services so billing gets confusing very fast.

It provides automatic protection from DDos attacks without any additional charges , as we all know DDos attack can bring down the performance of you application in a minutes so it's the must required service for your all applications , you can enable AWS Shield Advanced protection for Amazon cloud Front and it also offers DDoS cost protection !!
