As AWS adoption grows, the attack surface across accounts, identities, networks, workloads, and data stores expands just as quickly. Toolsets multiply, configurations drift, and multi-account environments make it hard to maintain least privilege, consistent guardrails, and audit-ready evidence. Traditional, project-only approaches leave gaps; compliance obligations add complexity; and under the Shared Responsibility Model, unclear ownership often leads to higher risk, slower audits, and rising cost. What’s missing is a unified, AWS-native operating model that continuously assesses posture, enforces controls, detects threats, and proves compliance for cloud infrastructure specifically.
