A new hire describes AWS Security Hub as a packet-filtering firewall that should replace security groups for a library website. What is the more accurate purpose of Security Hub?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Security Hub is the findings inbox and priority board, not the door lock on each VPC. Security groups and NACLs still handle packet filtering; Hub helps you see and prioritize what GuardDuty, Inspector, and friends reported. Calling Hub a firewall mixes the aggregator with the filter.
Full Explanation
AWS Security Hub aggregates, organizes, and helps prioritize security findings from AWS services and integrated partners so operators can understand posture. It is not a network packet filter and does not replace security groups or network ACLs. Treating Hub as a firewall, TLS terminator, or physical appliance misstates its role at Cloud Practitioner depth.
