Enforcing defense-in-depth security across AWS accounts involves configuring mandatory controls like GuardDuty, Security Hub, and KMS encryption through a config.yaml file. This provides a structured, automated approach to maintain consistent security baselines for multi-account environments.

The best way to audit AWS security baselines for S3, EC2, and RDS is through a guided workflow that validates configurations against defense-in-depth practices. It checks service settings to ensure they meet continuous monitoring and compliance requirements.

Yes, you can automate compliance reporting for AWS environments by centralizing your security posture. The workflow integrates CloudTrail and Security Hub to gather audit data, enabling you to generate validated compliance reports for auditors.

You do not need to configure assets entirely manually; settings are configurable via an assets/config.yaml file. This allows you to define and validate the structure of your AWS security monitoring integrations like GuardDuty and KMS.

Defense-in-depth protects AWS VPC and network configurations by applying layered security controls across accounts. It continuously monitors network traffic and configurations, integrating with services like GuardDuty to detect threats and ensure baseline security.

Using config.yaml for AWS security enforcement limits you to the validated structure and predefined controls defined within the skill. Complex, highly custom AWS security orchestration outside the defense-in-depth baseline may require additional custom scripts.
