The integration will send all Infection Monkey findings (typically 10 to 40) to the AWS Security Hub at the end of a breach simulation.

Setup

If the correct AWS IAM role permissions have been set on the Monkey Island machine, it will automatically export its findings to the AWS Security Hub.

Specific permissions required for the AWS Security Hub

  • "securityhub:UpdateFindings"
  • "securityhub:BatchImportFindings"

Note that this integration is specifically between your Monkey Island and the AWS Security Hub. The Infection Monkey is a free project, and there is no centralized infrastructure.

Enabling finding reception

Before starting the scan, make sure that the AWS Security Hub is accepting findings by enabling the Infection Monkey integration. Find GuardiCore: AWS Infection Monkey integration on the list and click on Accept findings.
