AWS WAF Captcha helps block unwanted bot traffic by requiring users to successfully complete challenges before their web requests are allowed to reach AWS WAF-protected resources. WAF Captcha challenges are simple for humans while remaining effective against bots. Starting today, AWS WAF Captcha is adding ten additional languages – Arabic, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Dutch, Japanese, Portuguese, Turkish, and Chinese (simplified) – and is designed to meet WCAG accessibility requirements. AWS WAF Captcha uses the client browser language settings to select the language of the challenge, so there is no additional configuration needed. In addition, you will see a new option to change the Captcha page language, if needed.

AWS WAF Fraud Control – Account Takeover Protection (ATP) can now inspect origin responses, giving customers additional protection against brute force and credential stuffing attacks on their login pages. Until today, ATP rules were limited to inspecting incoming login requests against a stolen credentials database, analyzing requests seen over time for username and password traversals, and then aggregating this data based on unique identifiers, such as IP address or session ID. With this release, ATP managed rules can now also inspect application response data and block login attempts based on customer-defined login failure conditions. This capability helps to protect against brute force attacks involving non-compromised credentials.

Amazon Pinpoint now helps customers determine the amount spent for SMS and voice activity during the current month by providing visibility to SMS and voice spend metrics through the Amazon CloudWatch console.

Amazon Cognito identity pools now publishes data events to AWS CloudTrail logs. Customers now have greater visibility into access-related activities for both guest and authenticated users of their applications. Administrators can now configure Amazon CloudWatch Alarms to monitor specific activity on Amazon Cognito identity pools and react based on automated workflows. Customers can record data events in AWS CloudTrail and gain better insight into the identity providers leveraged by users to access AWS resources with Amazon Cognito identity pools. AWS CloudTrail may charge for recording data events. 

Amazon Kinesis Data Streams for Amazon DynamoDB now supports AWS CloudFormation for DynamoDB global tables, which means you can enable streaming to an Amazon Kinesis data stream on your DynamoDB global tables with CloudFormation templates. By streaming your DynamoDB data changes to a Kinesis data stream, you can build advanced streaming applications with Amazon Kinesis services. For example, Amazon Kinesis Data Analytics reduces the complexity of building, managing, and integrating with Apache Flink and provides built-in functions to filter, aggregate, and transform streaming data for advanced analytics. You also can use Amazon Kinesis Data Firehose to take advantage of managed streaming delivery of DynamoDB table data to other AWS services such as Amazon OpenSearch Service, Amazon Redshift, and Amazon S3.
