The Public Cloud Team has standardized on the NIST 800-53 Cybersecurity Framework across our campus public cloud environments. NIST 800-53 is a set of guidelines and best practices designed to help organizations better manage and reduce cybersecurity risk. 

AWS Security Hub was updated to use NIST Special Publication 800-53 on Wednesday, August 2, 2023 in our DLT3 and STRIDES AWS Organizations.

For more information on the specific Security Hub checks, please refer to Amazon’s documentation.
