Amazon Web Services (AWS)

Connect Sola and AWS to get security insights

The Amazon Web Services (AWS) integration connects data from your AWS account to your Sola workspace, making it easy to search and find answers to your specific use cases.

Overview

The AWS integration gives you a complete view of your AWS environment, allowing you to monitor and analyze AWS security posture and potential threats.

With the AWS integration, you can:

• Ensure cloud security best practices

• Gain full visibility into your cloud resources

• Identify security risks across your cloud environment

Your data can only be retrieved, never modified.

Once connected, your data is securely stored, and access is restricted to retrieving configurations and metadata only. Authentication methods ensure secure delegation of permissions while maintaining data integrity.

No hidden indirect cloud provider charges The Sola integration won’t use resources that increase your cloud costs.

Set up AWS data source integration with Sola

Go to Integrations > Data Sources > click New data source > select AWS.

The Sola wizard will take you through the steps.

Connect AWS to Sola

To connect AWS, you’ll need an AWS account, with the necessary permissions to create an IAM role.

Cross-Account Role

Recommended for secure, production environments. These methods use an IAM role delegation within your account to securely grant Sola read-only access to your AWS services and resources.

• CloudFormation (Recommended)

• Terraform
