AWS Security Hub is now available in the Middle East (UAE) Region. You can now use Security Hub to centrally view and manage the security posture of your AWS accounts in the Middle East (UAE) Region and take advantage of 108 security controls to automatically check your security posture in the Region.
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, AWS Health, AWS IAM Access Analyzer, and AWS Systems Manager Patch Manager. 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 Events 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 begin your 30-day free trial of Security Hub with a single action in the AWS Management console. To learn more about Security Hub capabilities, see the Security Hub documentation, and to start your 30-day free trial, see the Security Hub free trial page. To receive notifications about new Security Hub features and controls, subscribe to the Security Hub SNS topic in your preferred Region.
