Why Amazon Inspector Service?

Amazon Inspector is a vulnerability management service that continually scans AWS workloads for software vulnerabilities and unintended network exposure. With a few steps in the AWS Management Console, you can use Amazon Inspector across all accounts in your organization. Once started, it automatically discovers Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) instances, container images residing in Amazon Elastic Container Registry (ECR) and within CI/CD tools, and AWS Lambda functions, at scale, and immediately starts assessing them for known vulnerabilities.
