GuardDuty makes it easier to continuously monitor your AWS accounts, workloads, and runtime activity. GuardDuty is designed to operate completely independently from your resources and have no performance or availability impact to your workloads. The service is fully managed with integrated threat intelligence, machine learning (ML) anomaly detection, and malware scanning. GuardDuty delivers detailed and actionable alerts that are designed to be integrated with existing event management and workflow systems. There are no upfront costs and you pay only for the events analyzed, with no additional software to deploy or threat intelligence feed subscriptions required.
