AWS Security Incident Response now supports membership coverage for individual AWS organizational units

AWS has enhanced its Security Incident Response service by introducing organizational unit (OU) specific membership coverage.

• Previously, memberships covered entire AWS Organizations
• Now users can choose specific OUs for Security Incident Response coverage
• Enables targeted coverage for production workloads or specific business subsidiaries
• Allows pilot testing of the service in a specific OU before broader deployment
• Automatic updates to coverage when accounts are added or removed from selected OUs

The service combines automated monitoring, accelerated communication, and 24/7 access to AWS Customer Incident Response Team (CIRT) to help organizations quickly respond to security events.
