  • •AWS introduced a new pricing model for its Security Incident Response service on October 8, 2026.
  • •The service provides automated triage and human investigation for security findings from GuardDuty and Security Hub.
  • •The first 10,000 findings each month are free, with costs decreasing as usage increases.

On October 8, 2026, AWS updated its Security Incident Response pricing model, introducing a per-finding billing system for its managed service that assists in responding to security alerts. This service complements existing tools like GuardDuty and Security Hub, which generate alerts but do not provide direct response capabilities. The new model allows customers to send findings for triage and response, helping to manage the overwhelming number of alerts security teams face. AWS's Security Incident Response service is designed to automate monitoring and provide human oversight for critical findings, ensuring timely containment and recovery. The pricing structure incentivizes usage, with the first 10,000 findings each month free, and costs decreasing with higher volumes. This rollout coincides with AWS's broader enhancements to its security offerings throughout 2026, including new threat analytics and protection features for databases.
