AWS Security Hub Reviews & Product Details

As someone who manages multi-account AWS environments and data pipelines, I appreciate how Security Hub centralizes security and compliance findings across services like GuardDuty, Inspector, and Macie. The automated compliance checks for CIS and PCI DSS are especially useful for ensuring data governance without manual overhead. Security Hub’s integration with EventBridge also makes it easy to trigger automated responses, which aligns well with my experience building end-to-end data and ML workflows on AWS.

While the centralized view is powerful, handling a large volume of findings can be overwhelming without careful filtering or automation. Multi-region and cross-account configuration requires additional setup, which can slow initial adoption. Also, native integration with third-party SIEM tools could be more seamless, as currently, I rely on custom pipelines and Lambda functions to forward alerts for advanced analytics.

What I like best about AWS Cloud Security is its granular control and deep integration across AWS services, especially through tools like IAM (Identity and Access Management), AWS Organizations, and AWS Config. These allow precise permission management, automated compliance checks, and centralized governance. Services like AWS GuardDuty, Security Hub, and CloudTrail make threat detection, auditing, and incident response highly efficient. The scalability and flexibility to tailor security policies to any size or type of workload is also a major advantage. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I dislike about AWS Cloud Security is that the learning curve can be steep, especially for newcomers or small teams without dedicated cloud security expertise. The wide range of services and complex configuration options can be overwhelming, and misconfigurations can lead to security gaps if not carefully managed. Additionally, while documentation is extensive, it can sometimes be too dense or fragmented, making it difficult to quickly find practical, real-world implementation guidance.

Eventhough other security services in aws helps me in aggregate logs from events, and Macie for compliace buf fortunalety to be proactive instead of being reactive always security hub seems pretty friedly choice. Implementation and integration are easy and well documented. No worries about the support as AWS itself community friendly . For me its a daily routine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Complexity: The sheer breadth of AWS security offerings can be overwhelming for new users. Navigating the different services and understanding their interactions can be a steep learning curve, even for experienced IT professionals.

Pricing: While AWS offers a free tier for some services, many essential security features come at a cost. The pricing structure can be complex, making it difficult to accurately estimate and budget for security expenses.

Limited visibility: While AWS provides tools for monitoring and analyzing security events, the default dashboards can lack depth and customization options. For organizations with complex security needs, building comprehensive security reports may require additional tools or expertise. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
