Amazon Inspector - Amazon Inspector Assessment Template

Upcoming Features

Set up Amazon Inspector Templates to assess the security state of EC2 instances, including testing applications for exposure, vulnerabilities, and deviations from best practices. Templates can be restricted to select EC2 instances by Tag or apply to all EC2 instances. Configuration includes options to enable automatically recurring assessments based on a schedule.

Select one or more rule packages to include in the assessment template:

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures: Assess whether EC2 instances in the assessment targets are exposed to common vulnerabilities and exposures (CVEs).
Center for Internet Security (CIS) Benchmarks: CIS Certified rules packages to help establish secure configuration postures for supported operating systems.
Security Best Practices for Amazon Inspector: Amazon Inspector rules to help determine whether your systems are configured securely (Linux Only)
Runtime Behavior Analysis: Analyze the behavior of instances during an assessment run. They also provide guidance about how to make EC2 instances more secure.
Network Reachability: Analyze network configurations of EC2 instances and provide guidance about restricting access that is not secure.
