Triage AWS Security Hub findings in plain language
Security Hub is great at collecting findings and famously unhelpful at telling you which ones matter today. Here’s how triage looks when the console becomes a conversation.
1. Start wide
Show me all active critical findings from AWS Security Hub across all regions.
Kikimora calls Security Hub, aggregates across regions, and groups what it finds by resource and root cause - so 40 findings about the same public bucket arrive as one item, not forty.
2. Ask the question you actually have
Which of these are internet-reachable right now?
This is where a conversational layer earns its keep: the agent cross-references the findings with what your edge and ASM data say is actually exposed. A “critical” on an internal-only resource drops down the list; a “high” on something Shodan can see jumps up.
3. Fix, with approval
Close the public access on prod-backups.
The agent proposes the exact change, waits for your approval, applies it, and writes the audit entry. If you’d rather ship it through IaC, ask for the Terraform instead.
Why this beats the console
- No region-hopping - one query covers the estate.
- Correlation by default - findings arrive grouped by cause, ranked by real exposure.
- The fix is in the same place as the finding - no copy-pasting ARNs into runbooks.
Try it on your own findings - the free tier connects to AWS in about five minutes.
