Ultimate Guide to Amazon S3 Data Lake Observability for Security Teams

Amazon Security Lake is a security analytics solution that centralizes security data into Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3) to provide real-time visibility and actionable insights for responding to security threats. It collects and processes data lake observability data from multiple AWS services, such as AWS CloudTrail, VPC Flow Logs, and AWS Config, and uses the Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF) to standardize security data formats. The platform integrates with ChaosSearch to provide a data-driven approach to data lake observability in S3, allowing teams to build a security data lake with the ability to index data directly in cloud object storage. Amazon Security Lake provides a flexible layer of automation that drives analysis of the many data sources in a security data lake, assesses risk, and engages security teams when necessary for human review of conditions. By leveraging S3 and integrating observability capabilities through ChaosSearch, teams can create an effective data lake observability pipeline for a security data lake with petabyte scale economics and performance.
