AWS Network Security Manager is now generally available in US East (N. Virginia) Region

AWS WAFAWS · Security, Identity, & Compliance

Today, AWS announces the general availability of AWS Network Security Manager, a comprehensive network security management solution designed to simplify security policy deployment and enforcement at scale. Network Security Manager supports AWS WAF and AWS Shield Advanced, with support for AWS Network Firewall soon to follow. AWS Network Security Manager enables security teams to consistently enforce firewall and DDoS protection configurations across their entire AWS organization.

Network Security Manager features always-on security deployment automation that applies AWS WAF and AWS Shield Advanced security protection to Internet facing assets like AWS Application Load Balancer and Amazon CloudFront. This automated approach helps security teams deploy and manage WAF rules and Shield Advanced protections efficiently, ensuring consistent security posture across targeted accounts and resources. Teams can centrally manage security policies, automatically detect configuration drift, and apply remediation reducing the operational overhead of manual security management while maintaining comprehensive protection.

AWS Network Security Manager is generally available in US East (N. Virginia). For pricing information, visit the AWS Network Security Manager Pricing page.
