Macie continually evaluates your S3 environment
Macie generates a resource summary that includes bucket and object counts as well as details on the bucket-level security and access controls.
Start discovering sensitive data
Macie automatically samples and analyzes objects in your S3 buckets, inspecting them for sensitive data such as personally identifiable information (PII), builds an interactive data map of where your sensitive data in S3 resides across accounts, and provides a sensitivity score for each bucket.
