AWS Security Hub is expanding to unify security operations across multicloud environments

After talking with many customers, one thing is clear: the security challenge has not gotten easier. Enterprises today operate across a complex mix of environments, including on-premises infrastructure, private data centers, and multiple clouds, often with tools that were never designed to work together. The result is enterprise security teams spend more time managing tools than managing risk, making it harder to stay ahead of threats across an increasingly complex environment.

At Amazon Web Service (AWS), we believe security should be simple, integrated, and built for the way enterprises actually operate. This belief is what drove us to reimagine AWS Security Hub, delivering full-stack security through a single experience, and this vision is driving our next chapter.

We transformed Security Hub into a unified security operations solution by bringing together AWS security services, including Amazon GuardDuty, Amazon Inspector, AWS Security Hub Cloud Security Posture Management (Security Hub CSPM), and Amazon Macie, into a single experience that automatically and continuously analyzes security signals across threats, vulnerabilities, misconfigurations, and sensitive data. Security Hub delivers a common foundation, bringing together findings from across your AWS environment so your security team spends less time translating signals and more time acting on them. Built on top of that foundation, a unified operations layer gives security teams near real-time risk analytics, automated analysis, and prioritized insights, helping them focus on what matters most, at scale.

We also introduced new capabilities (the Extended plan) that simplify how enterprises procure, deploy, and integrate a full-stack security solution across endpoint, identity, email, network, data, browser, cloud, AI, and security operations. Now, customers can use Security Hub to expand their security portfolio through a curated selection of AWS Partner solutions (at launch: 7AI, Britive, CrowdStrike, Cyera, Island, Noma, Okta, Oligo, Opti, Proofpoint, SailPoint, Splunk (a Cisco company), Upwind, and Zscaler), all through one unified experience. With AWS as the seller of record, you benefit from pay-as-you-go pricing, a single bill, and no long-term commitments. Our goal is simple: unified security, everywhere your enterprise operates.

At AWS, interoperability means giving customers the freedom to choose solutions that best suit their needs, and the ability to use them wherever their workloads run. But freedom to innovate across multicloud environments also means that it is critical to secure them consistently, and without adding operational complexity.

In the coming months, we are expanding Security Hub with new multicloud capabilities that extend unified security operations beyond AWS. The foundation of this expansion is a common data layer that unifies security signals from wherever your workloads run. On top of that, a unified policy and operations layer delivers consistent posture management, exposure analysis, and risk prioritization, so your security team operates from a single view of risk rather than a fragmented collection of consoles.

Security Hub will deliver unified risk analytics that surface critical risks across your multicloud estate. You’ll be able to manage cloud security posture with Security Hub CSPM checks that give you consistent posture visibility, and extend vulnerability management with expanded Amazon Inspector capabilities, including virtual machine scanning, container image scanning, and serverless scanning. Security Hub will also deliver external network scanning that enriches security findings with context about internet-facing exposure across your multicloud environment, including for resources not running in AWS.

The result is more comprehensive risk coverage across your enterprise. It’s about giving your security team a single, unified experience to detect and respond to risks, wherever you operate.

The security leaders I speak with aren’t just asking for better tools. They’re asking for a way to get ahead of risk, not just manage it. They want security that keeps pace with the business, not security that slows it down.

That’s the vision behind AWS Security Hub: unified security through a single, integrated security operations experience, built on a common data foundation, powered by intelligent analytics, and delivered through a consistent operations layer, to help reduce security risk, improve team productivity, and strengthen security operations across AWS and beyond.

Our multicloud expansion is underway, and we are just getting started.
