Running EC2 instance is not managed by Systems Manager

What's the problem

SSM Agent is not Online (never registered, or connection lost): Run Command, Patch Manager and Session Manager cannot reach the instance, so during an incident the only way in is SSH/RDP (an open port plus long-lived keys). Only running instances are checked; stopped ones are skipped

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.
