What happened in AWS CloudSecurity & CyberSecurity last week October 08- October 15, 2024?

• AWS now provides service reference information to simplify the automation of policy management workflows, allowing you to retrieve available actions across AWS services from machine-readable files.
• Amazon CloudFront now supports JA4 fingerprinting for incoming requests, allowing you to permit trusted clients or block malicious ones. The JA4 fingerprint is transmitted through the Cloudfront-viewer-ja4-fingerprint header. You can analyze these fingerprints with custom logic on your web servers or by using CloudFront Functions or Lambda@Edge
• AWS announces the general availability of Console to Code, powered by Amazon Q Developer. With a few click, you can generate code for the console actions in the preferred format (eg YAML, JSON, SDK etc).
• AWS Identity Center (IdC, previously known as SSO) now displays QR code for AWS Console Mobile Application Sign-In option.
• AWS introduces End User Messaging Social, allowing you to connect to endusers via WhatsApp, with interactive capabilities. It also integrates with End User Messaging SMS and Push notifications.
