How AWS Continuum and Amazon Inspector Cover the Full Vulnerability Spectrum

60% of organizations update web applications weekly, yet 75% test security monthly or less, leading 81% to knowingly ship vulnerable code to meet deadlines, driven by traditional pen tests taking three weeks and $25–50K per engagement.

In this WiCyS webinar, Amazon Web Services demonstrates how to close this gap using two complementary security solutions:

AWS Security Agent (The Unknown): A frontier AI agent that proactively secures applications across the SDLC—reviewing design docs, enforcing PR policies, and executing multi-step pen tests in hours to catch business logic flaws and architectural weaknesses pattern-matchers miss.

Amazon Inspector (The Known): An automated vulnerability management platform that continuously scans EC2, Lambda, containers, and repositories to track the 80% of vulnerabilities that are documented—including CVEs, network exposure, IaC misconfigurations, and CIS benchmark violations.

Attendees will learn where these services overlap, where they diverge, and how to combine both into a unified security program via AWS Security Hub.
