AWS SECURITY AGENT - PENETRATION TESTING OVERVIEW

Summary from the TLDR InfoSec newsletter

AWS Security Agent allows customers to launch automated, agentic penetration tests on sites that they own. This post walks through the process of setting it up to scan DVWA running on an EC2 instance. The author was impressed by the presentation of the findings, such as including PoCs and verification, and felt that it can definitely augment penetration tests and reduce time to test, but felt that improvements are still needed, such as the ability to export results as a PDF.
