Amazon Guard Duty is a both comprehensive and advance cloud-based intrusion detection and prevention system that is only available for the AWS ecosystem. Guard Duty incorporates all the modern features used in firewalls today including threat intelligence. What makes Guard Duty so effective is the ability to access multiple sources of data for analysis like AWS cloud trail, event logs, VPC flow logs and DNS logs and then use artificial intelligence to piece together a full picture on what events are going on and determine the appropriate actions to be taken.
