Introduction We’re very pleased to introduce the Certificate Rotator component for AWS IoT Greengrass, a new component in the Greengrass Software Catalog. AWS IoT Greengrass brings the AWS cloud closer to edge devices to support applications that demand local data processing and low latency. The growing number of edge devices in consumer, enterprise, and industrial […]

Introduction  We are pleased to introduce the latest version of AWS Well-Architected IoT Lens. IoT projects can be complex due to a combination of many factors, including devices, software, use case scenarios, environments, processing patterns, network connectivity technologies, communication protocols, security issues, technical risks, compliance requirements and standards. The AWS Well-Architected IoT Lens provides simple […]

Introduction With the increasing proliferation of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) systems and cloud services for innovation and digital transformation, government agencies and industrial customers are faced with protecting an expanding attack surface. The ISA/IEC 62443 series of standards were written before IIoT technologies were common but provide a strong basis for securing these environments. […]

Introduction Organizations install hundreds of Internet Protocol (IP) cameras to increase security by surveilling indoor and outdoor spaces. This is a common need for manufacturing plant floors across industries such as automotive, commercial, Oil & Gas, public safety, and agri-tech. Companies connect cameras to the cloud to create a centralized view of their siloed data […]

Introduction We are excited to announce a new AWS IoT Device Defender audit feature to identify potential misconfigurations when using wild cards in Internet of Things (IoT) policies. AWS IoT Device Defender is a fully managed IoT security service that enables you to audit and monitor your IoT device fleet and secure your IoT configurations […]

Introduction Dynamically verifiable device identity is a foundational component of a Zero Trust Architecture (ZTA). Ongoing dynamic evaluation of identity and trust requires complete and timely visibility into relevant components of that identity. Active device certificates issued by a revoked intermediate Certificate Authority (CA) can pose a security threat due to the intermediate CA being […]

Introduction We are excited to announce that AWS IoT Device Defender is now integrated with AWS Security Hub. This integration allows you to ingest alarms and their attributes from audit and detect features in one central location, without custom coding. This will help you offload or reduce complexity of managing disparate workflows from multiple security […]

Introduction When devices are deployed behind restricted firewalls at remote sites, you need a way to gain access to those devices for troubleshooting, configuration updates, and other operational tasks. This is where, secure tunneling, a feature of AWS IoT Device Management has been helping customers to do remote tasks. To help elevate customers even further, AWS has […]

Introduction In this post, you’ll learn how the integration of IoT security findings into AWS Security Hub works, and you can download AWS CloudFormation templates to implement the solution. After you deploy the solution, every AWS IoT Device Defender audit and detect finding will be recorded as a Security Hub finding. The findings within Security […]
