Remediating security issues discovered by GuardDuty - Amazon GuardDuty

REMEDIATING SECURITY ISSUES DISCOVERED BY GUARDDUTY

PDFRSS

Amazon GuardDuty generates findings that indicate potential security issues. In
this release of GuardDuty, the potential security issues indicate either a
compromised EC2 instance or container workload, or a set of compromised
credentials in your AWS environment. The following sections describe the
recommended remediation steps for these scenarios. If there are alternative
remediation scenarios they will be described in the entry for that specific
finding type. You can access the full information about a finding type by
selecting it from the Active findings types table.
