Today Amazon CodeCatalyst announces support for approval gates within a workflow. Workflows provide an automated procedure for building, testing, and deploying code as part of a continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) system. Approval gates pause the workflow run at the gate so that a user can validate whether it should be allowed to proceed.

Amazon Inspector now offers continuous monitoring of your Amazon EC2 instances for software vulnerabilities without installing an agent or additional software. Currently, Inspector leverages the widely deployed AWS Systems Manager (SSM) agent to assess your EC2 instances for third-party software vulnerabilities. With this expansion, Inspector now offers two scan modes for EC2 scanning, hybrid scan mode and agent-based scan mode. In hybrid scan mode, Inspector relies on SSM agents to collect information from instances to perform vulnerability assessments and automatically switches to agentless scanning for instances that do not have SSM agents installed or configured. For agentless scanning, Inspector takes snapshots of EBS volumes to collect software application inventory from the instances to perform vulnerability assessments. For agent-based scan mode, Inspector only scans instances that have a SSM agent installed and configured. New customers enabling EC2 scanning are configured in hybrid mode by default, while existing customers can migrate to hybrid mode by simply visiting the EC2 settings page within the Inspector console. Once enabled, Inspector automatically discovers all your EC2 instances and starts evaluating them for software vulnerabilities.

Today, AWS End User Computing services announced availability of two larger, more powerful instance types for Amazon WorkSpaces Web. These new instance types provide higher performance options to help customers run demanding workloads, helping to deliver significant performance improvements for use cases like streaming audio or video, real-time collaboration, screen sharing, video conferencing, or processing large files. With this launch, WorkSpaces Web now offers a total of 3 different instance types: standard.regular, standard.large, and standard.xlarge.

Today, AWS announced Amazon Route 53 Profiles, a new offering that allows you to define a standard DNS configuration, in the form of a Profile, that may include Route 53 private hosted zone (PHZ) associations, Route 53 Resolver forwarding rules, and Route 53 Resolver DNS Firewall rule groups, and apply this configuration to multiple VPCs in the same AWS Region. You can also share Profiles across AWS accounts using AWS Resource Access Manager (RAM).
