Solving Your AWS Security Challenges

Lack of Visibility Across Cloud Infrastructure

Whether your datacenter infrastructure is on AWS or hybrid, Alert Logic provides scalable, agile security. You’ll have a single-user experience, eliminating the need for a different security solution for each type of environment.

AWS Security Misconfigurations

Lack of adequate controls and oversight, as well as lack of awareness of security policies, are leading causes of cloud misconfigurations. Alert Logic continuously scans for misconfigurations and missing patches in your cloud environment and provides remediation guidance.

Security Alert Fatigue

Alert Logic aggregates security events and incidents from a variety of log and other data sources, creates correlation rules, manages threat intelligence content, and cross-correlates security data to identify high priority incidents that may affect your AWS environment.

AWS Compliance Complexities

With Alert Logic, you can reduce the burden associated with meeting key compliance requirements across AWS, on-premises, and in hybrid environments. We map to specific mandates with our MDR solutions to expedite and empower your security compliance.

Securely Migrating to AWS

Leverage Alert Logic’s security professionals’ expertise through all stages of migration: purchasing, deployment, configuration, tuning, and optimization.

 

 

Take the stress and worries away from your AWS security by partnering with Alert Logic. With our MDR solution, you’ll have unrivaled security 24/7 at every stage of your AWS journey. We are the MDR choice for AWS security.

AWS CloudFormation

From agent deployment to configuration of AWS services that allows Alert Logic’s asset discovery and detection technologies to work, Alert Logic provides sample cloud formation scripts for customers to adapt to their workflow.

AWS Control Tower

Alert Logic and AWS bring automated MDR deployment into AWS Control Tower managed accounts. With this capability, AWS Control Tower users can seamlessly deploy and configure Alert Logic MDR using their existing AWS Control Tower setup, reducing the number of steps required for deployment and ensuring consistency across accounts.

AWS Outposts

Using Alert Logic with AWS Outposts, run AWS services locally until you’re ready to confidently migrate applications at your own pace.

AWS Systems Manager

This service allows customers to view and control their infrastructure on AWS. AWS users can deploy the Alert Logic agent directly through the AWS Systems Manager and avoid having to use the Alert Logic console.

GitHub

ASSESS

AWS Security Posture Assessment

AWS CloudTrail

AWS CloudTrail records actions taken by a user, role, or AWS service as events. Alert Logic treat API activity data as any other data source to capture and manage. Alert Logic integrates with CloudTrail to collect API activity data within an AWS account and then combines the data with log data from other applications and systems.

With Alert Logic MDR intergration, customers are notified via the Alert Logic Console that an externally-shared resource must be verified by a customer as being authorized and having appropriate permissions.

AWS Identity Access

AWS Identity and Access Management

User behavior anomaly detection (UBAD) for AWS environments detects and alerts on suspicious activity. This capability uses machine learning to help determine a baseline of user behavior and identify changes in the way users access your systems including locations and times of access. Using AWS CloudTrail data, Alert Logic can detect and raise incidents for anomalous user behavior that may impact critical assets in your AWS environment.

AWS Inspector
