Offers best practice recommendations and supports various compliance standards
Security Hub provides insightful information about what is running and where there might be weaknesses. It offers best practice recommendations and supports various compliance standards such as ISO and PCI DSS. Enabling these compliance checks helps identify non-compliant services and suggests steps to achieve compliance. The main advantage is providing information and compliance insights rather than prevention.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"AWS Security Hub provides comprehensive alerts about potential compliance issues with CIS standards. The integration with third-party tools is another excellent feature. All our workloads are on AWS."
"The advantage is that it is cloud-native, and we do not need to install agents or sensors to find findings."
"Security Hub provides insightful information about what is running and where there might be weaknesses."
"AWS Security Hub can check your infrastructure against multiple compliance frameworks. You can turn on or off specific frameworks based on your needs."
"Cloudposse is a valuable feature as it guarantees my security."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the scanning of all the cloud environments and most of the compliances available in the cloud."
"AWS Security Hub has very good integration features. It allows for AWS native services integration, and it helps us to integrate some of the services outside of AWS. They have partners, such as Amazon Preferred Network Partners (APN). If you have different security tools around APN, we can integrate those findings with AWS Security Hub reducing the need to refer to different portals or different UIs. You can have AWS Security Hub act as a single common go-to dashboard."
"The advantage is that it is cloud-native, and we do not need to install agents or sensors to find findings."
"ThreatConnect has a highly user-friendly interface."
"It's a solid platform and is stable enough. It is not complicated and is easy to use."
"We have been able to see a return on investment as our clients believe in us more."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the ability to customize it."
"The tool's installation, integration, and playbooks are very straightforward."
"I like their customer support."
"The product automatically generated a threat score based on the maliciousness of an IP."
 

Cons

"The solution lacks self-sufficiency."
"Adding SIEM features would be beneficial because of the limited customization of AWS Security Hub."
"One aspect that could be improved in the solution is its adaptability to different markets and geopolitical restrictions. In certain regions like Thailand, specific services from certain countries or providers, such as AWS or Azure, might be limited or blocked. It also needs improvement in would require configuring the solution more adaptable to AWS infrastructure and function."
"Shortening the response time for support tickets, particularly in production issues, could make the service more efficient."
"From an improvement perspective, there is a need to add more compliance since, right now, AWS Security Hub only provides four to five compliances to control the tool."
"Many findings are too generic or irrelevant to the environment, which can lead to false positives."
"It is not flexible for multi-cloud environments."
"We need more granular-level customizations to enable or disable the rules in AWS Security Hub."
"Support is an area with which nobody is ever fully satisfied, so it can be improved."
"I would like to see improvements in the time zone support of their customer service, considering users are from different time zones."
"I couldn’t get any training videos online when I was working with the tool."
"They should make it a little bit easier to generate events and share them with the community"
"Sometimes, when using the solution, it slows down, affecting our ability to mitigate threats."
"It would be good to have more feeds and more integrated sources for enrichment."
"Integration is an area that could use some improvement."

"Security Hub is not an expensive solution."
"AWS Security Hub's pricing is pretty reasonable."
"The pricing is fine. It is not an expensive tool."

"The price of AWS Security Hub is average compared to other solutions."
"The tool is expensive."

Cybereason vs. Interset vs. SQRRL
Capture DB - they all use NoSQL db and hence solve the ad hoc query and 'go back in time' problem with current best of breed SIEM and DLP solutions that rely on real time analysis of incoming logs (and don't store them). This means deeper and quicker iterative threat analysis and assessment…
