An organization that handles medical records is adopting cloud services and must comply with regulations that protect personal health information. For automatic discovery and safeguarding of sensitive data stored in the cloud, which AWS offering should they implement?
Amazon Macie is a security service that uses machine learning and pattern matching to automatically discover, classify, and protect sensitive data stored in Amazon S3. It helps organizations meet compliance obligations such as HIPAA by alerting them to personal health information (PHI) and other regulated data.
AWS WAF focuses on preventing web-application exploits, AWS Shield mitigates DDoS attacks, and Amazon Inspector assesses vulnerabilities in compute resources rather than classifying data. Therefore, those services do not meet the requirement for automated sensitive-data discovery in storage.
