Amazon GuardDuty is a threat detection service that continuously monitors for malicious activity and unauthorized behavior to protect your AWS accounts and workloads. With the cloud, the collection and aggregation of account and network activities is simplified, but it can be time consuming for security teams to continuously analyze event log data for potential threats. With GuardDuty, you now have an intelligent and cost-effective option for continuous threat detection in the AWS Cloud. The service uses machine learning, anomaly detection, and integrated threat intelligence to identify and prioritize potential threats. GuardDuty analyzes tens of billions of events across multiple AWS data sources, such as AWS CloudTrail, Amazon VPC Flow Logs, and DNS logs. With a few clicks in the AWS Management Console, GuardDuty can be enabled with no software or hardware to deploy or maintain. By integrating with AWS CloudWatch Events, GuardDuty alerts are actionable, easy to aggregate across multiple accounts, and straightforward to push into existing event management and workflow systems.
HyTrust DataControl is a complete cloud and virtualization encryption solution including both encryption and KeyControl and is available for both Windows and Linux. Initial installation takes just a few seconds and data is securely encrypted at rest and in motion from the point of install until the VM is eventually securely retired.
Because the encryption software is part of the VM, encryption travels with the VM from one physical host to another or from private to public cloud and back again. Operationally DataControl is transparent, allowing encryption and rekeying on the fly with no need to reboot, dismount or incur downtime.
