Amazon Inspector

Overview

Amazon Inspector is a security vulnerability assessment service that helps improve the security and compliance of your AWS resources.

Enable this integration to see all your Inspector metrics in Datadog.

If you haven’t already, set up the Amazon Web Services integration first.

In the AWS integration page, ensure that Inspector is enabled under the Metric Collection tab.
Install the Datadog - Amazon Inspector integration.

Configure Amazon Inspector to send logs either to a S3 bucket or to CloudWatch.

Note: If you log to a S3 bucket, make sure that amazon_inspector is set as Target prefix.

If you haven’t already, set up the Datadog Forwarder Lambda function.
Once the Lambda function is installed, manually add a trigger on the S3 bucket or CloudWatch log group that contains your Amazon Inspector logs in the AWS console:
- Add a manual trigger on the S3 bucket
- Add a manual trigger on the CloudWatch Log Group
