Artificial Intelligence

I’m excited to announce that AWS Security Agent on-demand penetration testing and AWS DevOps Agent are now generally available, representing a new class of AI capabilities we announced at re:Invent called frontier agents. These autonomous systems work independently to achieve goals, scale massively to tackle concurrent tasks, and run persistently for hours or days without constant human oversight. Together, these agents are changing the way we secure and operate software. In preview, customers and partners report that AWS Security Agent compresses penetration testing timelines from weeks to hours and the AWS DevOps Agent supports 3–5x faster incident resolution.

In this post, you will learn how to set up the Confluence Cloud integration with Quick. This includes creating a knowledge base for semantic search, setting up Actions to query and manage Confluence pages, and organizing resources in Quick Spaces. Quick integrates with your current enterprise technology stack, from internal knowledge repositories and corporate intranets to business-critical applications and AWS data services.

In this post, you will implement four Lambda-based custom code evaluators for a financial market-intelligence agent, register each with AgentCore, and run them in on-demand and online modes. You will also see how to combine custom code-based evaluators with built-in evaluators and how to call other AWS services for grounded fact-checking, PII detection, and real-time alerting.

In this post, we walk through how to configure document-level ACLs for your S3 knowledge base in Amazon Quick. You will learn how to set up and verify an ACL configuration that enforces document-level permissions across chat and automated workflows.

In this post, you will learn how to implement Assisted NLU effectively. You will learn how to improve your bot design with effective intent and slot descriptions, validate your implementation using Test Workbench, and plan your transition from traditional NLU to Assisted NLU for both new and existing bots.

In this post, you learn how to combine Stream’s Vision Agents open-source framework with Amazon Bedrock and Amazon Nova 2 Sonic to build real-time voice agents that can be production-ready in minutes. You’ll learn how the integration works under the hood, walk through code examples, and explore advanced capabilities like function calling, automatic reconnection, and multilingual voice support.

Today, we’re announcing cross-account Athena access for Amazon Quick. With this feature, customers can query Athena data in other AWS accounts using AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) role chaining, with query costs billed to the account where the data resides.

In this post, you will configure Chrome enterprise policies to restrict a browser agent to a specific website, observe the policy enforcement through session recording, and demonstrate custom root CA certificates using a public test site. The walkthrough produces a working solution that researches Amazon Bedrock AgentCore documentation while operating under enterprise browser restrictions.

This post demonstrates how to build a documentation extraction and model fine-tuning pipeline that addresses challenges when processing the complex financial documents. By combining Pulse AI’s advanced document understanding capabilities with the powerful AI services of Amazon Bedrock, organizations can achieve enterprise-grade accuracy and extract contextually relevant financial insights at scale.

Building end-to-end live streaming applications with real-time voice interaction presents several challenges. This post introduces a solution based on Amazon Nova 2 Sonic (Nova Sonic) and Amazon Kinesis Video Streams WebRTC (WebRTC) that addresses these challenges. In this post, we’ll walk through the solution architecture, implementation patterns, and two real-world scenario examples.

The Cisco and AWS partnership addresses three challenges enterprises face when scaling AI agents: visibility gaps, security bottlenecks, and compliance risks. In this post, we explore how you can overcome AI security challenges through automated scanning and unified governance.
