Amazon GuardDuty is an AWS service that provides threat detection by continuously monitoring for malicious activities and unauthorized actions in AWS accounts. It analyzes data from various sources, such as VPC Flow Logs, CloudTrail event logs, and DNS logs, to identify potential security threats. Specifically, Amazon GuardDuty is designed to protect AWS accounts, workloads, and data stored in Amazon S3 from various types of threats, including unauthorized access, compromised instances, and data exfiltration attempts. It uses machine learning algorithms and threat intelligence to identify patterns and anomalies that may indicate malicious activity. When GuardDuty detects a potential threat, it generates findings and alerts, which can be viewed in the AWS Management Console or integrated with other AWS services for automated responses. This helps organizations quickly identify and respond to security incidents, improving their overall security posture.
