Amazon Inspector

Amazon Inspector is an AWS security service designed for automated and continual vulnerability management. It specifically targets Amazon EC2 instances and Amazon ECR repositories to identify potential security issues. The service operates as a free offering, with an additional free trial option available for users to explore its capabilities without immediate financial commitment.

Choose this tool when you need ongoing, automated scanning for vulnerabilities within your EC2 and ECR environments. A key consideration is that the service is provided at no cost, but you should verify if the free trial has specific duration limits or if the free tier applies indefinitely to all usage types.
