    I don't think there's yet a perfect tool in this category of security and incident aggregators, but AWS Security Hub is an excellent tool for having visibility into our overall security posture. It is a great aggregator for many AWS services but also for third party security tools with which it integrates really well.

    It is well suited for an organization that uses AWS tools and technologies. as AWS is very popular in the market. you can use almost any service with it. the only thing is your organization must be using AWS services. It is not also cheap so the price can be the issue.

    Cons
    Amazon AWS
    • Not easy to read past data, especially once it moves into Glacier deep storage
    • performance is somewhat sluggish ... other systems are much faster to analyze data
    • Doesn't always provide a remediation solution or suggested fix like other 3rd party tools like Qualys.
    • It's hard to get the initial configuration and enrollment completed as there's a lot of manual intervention for every configured rule that needs to be enabled
    • alerts are often times delayed

    Usability
    Amazon AWS
    AWS always good with usability and same here for AWS Security Hub. A lot of good documentation is available to read and configure your own. We also started with looking at the videos and documentation to configure automation for our compliance checks. And to configure there are very less steps to be followed which is a very good thing for faster configuration.

    AWS Security Hub is it's own unique program that I have used. I haven't used anything similar to it and it was worth it to try out. However, for those that want to keep for long, it will be very heavy in term of budget and resource that they have to provide.

    It does a good job not only it provides cost estimation but also it provides security measures that we have to take to make sure that we are not vulnerable to attacks. It also gives a performance report which helps to analyze the resource allocation and free resources more effectively.

    Return on Investment
    Amazon AWS
    • The automated compliance test helped us a lot to get PCIDSS certified so it was a very good return for our investments.
    • Some third party tools we were using were not available for AWS Security Hub automated testing.
    • Easy to configure for faster security automations but if we need detailed reports we should add more tools.
