Implementing AWS Security Hub
Globomantics is a global healthcare organization who has recently moved their key systems to AWS. Globomantics is finding it difficult to maintain adherence to certain industry and AWS standards. You have been asked to implement a solution that will: - Automatically assess their AWS resources against the PCI DSS standard and the AWS Foundational Security Best Practices (FSBP) standard - Provide notifications when the most urgent breaches of standards and best practices are registered Having considered several options, you have decided to recommend that Globomantics implement AWS Security Hub. In this lab, you will: 1. Create an SNS topic with an email subscriber. 2. Create an Amazon EventBridge rule with the SNS topic as the target. 3. Enable AWS Config. 4. Enable AWS Security Hub.
