No IAM Access Analyzer external access analyzer
HIGHWhat's the problem
S3 buckets, KMS keys, IAM roles or secrets shared with outside accounts are not reported. External access analyzers are free
How 6WAF detects it
- Deterministic checks through AWS API calls (IAM, S3, EC2/VPC, CloudTrail, KMS, Secrets Manager, ACM, detection services) — no LLM is used for detection; severity is the value the scanner assigns, shown above.
- Scanning uses an IAM Role you deploy yourself via CloudFormation; 6WAF stores no credentials and you revoke access any time by deleting the stack.
- Automated scoring covers only part of the scope of standards such as ISO 27001 — this is a technical assessment, not a certification.
Pillar: Security — Fast Scan
Group: Detection services (GuardDuty, Security Hub, Config, Inspector, Access Analyzer, Cost Anomaly Detection, Regions outside the scan)
Reference standard: AWS Security Hub IAM.28 (CIS, not FSBP)
