Performing a Vulnerability Scan Using Amazon Inspector

Amazon Inspector is a security assessment service provided by AWS. It helps you identify potential vulnerabilities and security issues in your AWS resources and applications. Amazon Inspector is designed to automate the assessment of security vulnerabilities and deviations from security best practices, enabling you to analyze the security posture of your AWS environment quickly and efficiently.

The service uses a combination of network-based and host-based assessments to gather information about your resources. It analyzes this data to generate findings that highlight security issues such as common software vulnerabilities, insecure configurations, and inadequate access controls. These findings are presented in a comprehensive report with detailed information about the identified vulnerabilities and recommended remediation steps.

Amazon Inspector offers pre-built assessment templates based on best practices and industry standards...
