AWS Security Hub now automatically receives Amazon GuardDuty Malware Protection findings. Amazon GuardDuty Malware Protection delivers agentless detection of malware on your Amazon Elastic Cloud Compute (EC2) instance and container workloads. This integration between Security Hub and GuardDuty expands the centralization and single pane of glass experience in Security Hub by consolidating your malware findings alongside your other security findings, allowing you to more easily search, triage, investigate, and take action on your security findings. GuardDuty Malware Protection findings within Security Hub also contain an investigation link that allows you to quickly dive deeper to investigate the finding in Amazon Detective. 

Available globally, AWS Security Hub gives you a comprehensive view of your security posture across your AWS accounts. With Security Hub, you now have a single place that aggregates, organizes, and prioritizes your security alerts, or findings, from multiple AWS services, such as Amazon GuardDuty, Amazon Inspector, Amazon Macie, AWS Firewall Manager, and AWS IAM Access Analyzer, as well as from over 65 AWS Partner Network (APN) solutions. You can also continuously monitor your environment using automated security checks based on standards, such as AWS Foundational Security Best Practices, the CIS AWS Foundations Benchmark, and the Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard. You can also take action on these findings by investigating findings in Amazon Detective and by using Amazon CloudWatch Event rules to send the findings to ticketing, chat, Security Information and Event Management (SIEM), Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR), and incident management tools or to custom remediation playbooks. 

You can enable your 30-day free trial of AWS Security Hub with a single-click in the AWS Management console. Please see the AWS Regions page for all the regions where AWS Security Hub is available.
