Security Standards and Compliance Scores

Learn how built-in standards rate your account's security posture.

Measuring Your Posture

Aggregating findings is half of Security Hub's value. The other half is continuously checking your account against best-practice standards and giving you a score. This tells you not just what attacked you, but how exposed your configuration is in the first place.

What a Security Standard Is

A security standard is a curated set of automated controls that check resources against best practices. Security Hub runs these checks on a schedule and reports each control as passed or failed, turning vague "are we secure?" questions into concrete, measurable results.
