aws securityhub
Security Hub provides you with a comprehensive view of the security state of your AWS environment and resources. It also provides you with the readiness status of your environment based on controls from supported security standards. Security Hub collects security data from AWS accounts, services, and integrated third-party products and helps you analyze security trends in your environment to identify the highest priority security issues. For more information about Security Hub, see the AWS Security Hub User Guide . When you use operations in the Security Hub API, the requests are executed only in the AWS Region that is currently active or in the specific AWS Region that you specify in your request. Any configuration or settings change that results from the operation is applied only to that Region. To make the same change in other Regions, execute the same command for each Region to apply the change to. For example, if your Region is set to us-west-2, when you use CreateMembers to add a member account to Security Hub, the association of the member account with the administrator account is created only in the us-west-2 Region. Security Hub must be enabled for the member account in the same Region that the invitation was sent from. The following throttling limits apply to using Security Hub API operations. BatchEnableStandards - RateLimit of 1 request per second, BurstLimit of 1 request per second. GetFindings - RateLimit of 3 requests per second. BurstLimit of 6 requests per second. UpdateFindings - RateLimit of 1 request per second. BurstLimit of 5 requests per second. UpdateStandardsControl - RateLimit of 1 request per second, BurstLimit of 5 requests per second. All other operations - RateLimit of 10 requests per second. BurstLimit of 30 requests per second

The maximum allowed size for a finding is 240 Kb. An error is returned for any finding larger than 240 Kb. After a finding is created, BatchImportFindings cannot be used to update the following finding fields and objects, which Security Hub customers use to manage their investigation workflow. Note UserDefinedFields VerificationState Workflow Finding providers also should not use BatchImportFindings to update the following attributes.

Administrator accounts can update findings for their account and their member accounts. Member accounts can update findings for their account. Updates from BatchUpdateFindings do not affect the value of UpdatedAt for a finding. Administrator and member accounts can use BatchUpdateFindings to update the following finding fields and objects. Confidence Criticality Note RelatedFindings Severity Types UserDefinedFields VerificationState Workflow You can configure IAM policies to restrict access to fields and field values. For example, you might not want member accounts to be able to suppress findings or change the finding severity. See Configuring access to BatchUpdateFindings in the AWS Security Hub User Guide |
create-action-target | Creates a custom action target in Security Hub. You can use custom actions on findings and insights in Security Hub to trigger target actions in Amazon CloudWatch Events |
create-insight | Creates a custom insight in Security Hub. An insight is a consolidation of findings that relate to a security issue that requires attention or remediation. To group the related findings in the insight, use the GroupByAttribute |
create-members | Creates a member association in Security Hub between the specified accounts and the account used to make the request, which is the administrator account. If you are integrated with Organizations, then the administrator account is designated by the organization management account. CreateMembers is always used to add accounts that are not organization members. For accounts that are part of an organization, CreateMembers is only used in the following cases: Security Hub is not configured to automatically add new accounts in an organization. The account was disassociated or deleted in Security Hub. This action can only be used by an account that has Security Hub enabled. To enable Security Hub, you can use the EnableSecurityHub operation. For accounts that are not organization members, you create the account association and then send an invitation to the member account. To send the invitation, you use the InviteMembers operation. If the account owner accepts the invitation, the account becomes a member account in Security Hub. Accounts that are part of an organization do not receive an invitation. They automatically become a member account in Security Hub. A permissions policy is added that permits the administrator account to view the findings generated in the member account. When Security Hub is enabled in a member account, the member account findings are also visible to the administrator account. To remove the association between the administrator and member accounts, use the DisassociateFromMasterAccount or DisassociateMembers operation |
