Risk Mitigation

  • While AWS Security Hub can provide a much more detailed view on misconfigurations, reviewing findings on Trusted advisor can identify issues not related to configurations, such as exposed access keys and it’s free, therefore it’s great for customers that do not have AWS Security Hub enabled yet.
  • If an access key appears on a public repository, besides of the email sent to the security contacts, an entry on Trusted advisor will appear to notify you.
