AWS Audit Manager now provides search-based filtering and grouping to help with noncompliance root-cause analysis

[Amazon Web Services]

AWS Audit Manager automatically collects evidence data, via snapshots of user activity or resource configurations, against controls that customers want to evaluate. Now, Audit Manager more easily allows you to sift through thousands of pieces of this collected evidence from multiple disparate sources, using search filters and groupings to identify trends and cross-reference issues. This will help you deep dive into issues identified via flagged compliance checks in the service, either in assessments - an automated data collection process against a specific set of controls - or on the Audit Manager dashboard. With this feature, you can filter and group evidence data using parameters like controls, resource types or resource IDs, service, event names, account IDs, etc. to understand the drivers of the issue. These results can then be exported as audit-ready PDF reports.
