Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio adds custom asset types to the catalog in IAM-based domains

Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio now supports custom asset types for IAM-based domains. With custom asset types, domain administrators can catalog any format of asset within the SageMaker Unified Studio, such as medical imaging files in Amazon S3, revenue dashboards built in PowerBI, or PDF research reports generated by a third-party platform. Custom asset types bring all assets, regardless of their underlying format, into the SageMaker catalog so teams can search, discover, and subscribe to them without needing separate tools or processes.
To get started, an administrator can create a custom asset type with a name, description, and optional metadata forms that define the fields each asset should carry. Individual assets can then be created from that type, enriched with glossary terms and README documentation to add business context for humans and AI agents, and published for discovery. Once published, anyone in the domain can find the asset by name, type, or glossary term and request a subscription through the same governed workflow used for all other catalog assets.
Custom asset types for IAM-based domains are available in all AWS Regions where Amazon SageMaker Unified Studio is available. To learn more, visit the SageMaker Unified Studio user guide.

Amazon Connect Customer now supports forecasting, planning, and scheduling for Tasks and Emails

Amazon Connect Customer now supports forecasting, capacity planning, and scheduling for Tasks and Emails, enabling you to plan and optimize your workforce across all workloads (Voice, Chat, Tasks, Emails). Connect Customer accounts for the unique characteristics of each channel, including concurrent work handling, duration of work from minutes to months, and distinct service level requirements, so your forecasts and schedules reflect how your operation actually runs. For example, if your agents handle email inquiries or tasks such as case processing alongside voice calls, you can now generate a unified forecast that accounts for all of these workloads and create schedules that efficiently allocate agents across channels. Thus enabling end-to-end workforce optimization within a single solution and ensuring consistent service levels across all customer interaction channels. This feature is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Connect Customer agent scheduling is available. To learn more about Amazon Connect Customer agent scheduling, click here.

AWS Security Hub now offers Network Scanning to identify publicly reachable resources

Today, AWS Security Hub introduces Network Scanning, a capability that identifies resources in your environment that are reachable from the public internet.  Network Scanning probes your resources from the internet to detect actual reachability, not just what could be reachable based on security group rules and route tables. It discovers public IP addresses, virtual machines, and load balancers across your AWS and Azure environments, identifies reachable ports, and determines what services are running behind them. This complements Security Hub’s existing network reachability findings, which identify configurations that could make a resource reachable from the internet.  Network Scanning confirms actual reachability from the internet. Each reachable port generates a Security Hub finding with evidence of the port and service discovered. Security Hub Exposures then automatically correlates these findings with other findings and resource configurations to determine broader risk.

AWS Builder Center Now Offers Free Sandbox Environments

AWS Builder Center now lets builders request free, time-limited sandbox environments directly from eligible workshops, eliminating the need for a personal AWS account, credit card, or concerns about unexpected charges. Previously, workshops could only be completed using a builder’s own AWS account. With sandbox environments, builders of all skill levels can safely deploy resources, write code, and experiment in a pre-provisioned AWS account.
Free sandbox environments are ideal for builders who want to gain practical AWS experience without setting up an account. Each sandbox provides 8 hours of access from activation, with automatic cleanup afterward. Builders can request one sandbox per week (resetting every Sunday), and most environments are ready within 15 minutes. Sandboxes are available for select workshops at launch, with more being enabled over time.
To get started, visit Workshops on AWS Builder Center.

AWS Security Hub extends unified security management to Microsoft Azure

Today, AWS announces that AWS Security Hub now monitors Microsoft Azure resources, extending risk analytics, cloud security posture management, vulnerability management, and security response management across both clouds. Many AWS customers running workloads in AWS and Azure have had to operate separate security tools for each environment, making it difficult to prioritize risks holistically or respond consistently. Security Hub now provides a single, unified experience to detect and respond to risks across your AWS and Azure environments. Security Hub automatically discovers Azure resources, including Azure Virtual Machines (VMs), Azure Container Registry (ACR) container images, Azure Function Apps, and Azure identities, and evaluates them for misconfigurations, internet exposure, and software vulnerabilities. You receive posture checks against security standards including the CIS Benchmarks™ for Microsoft Azure Foundations, unified resource inventory, risk and exposure analysis, and automated response through existing EventBridge integrations. AWS and Azure findings appear in the same prioritized view with the same finding formats and automation workflows, so security teams can operate from one console rather than switching between tools. Security Hub includes an independent 30-day free trial to monitor Azure resources that begins once you create your integration with Microsoft Azure. After the trial, you pay the same price for monitoring Azure resources and equivalent AWS resources. You can create an integration to Azure from all AWS Regions where Security Hub is available except Middle East (UAE), Middle East (Bahrain), Asia Pacific (Taipei), and Asia Pacific (New Zealand). You can also create integrations to Microsoft Azure for AWS Security Hub CSPM for posture management checks and Amazon Inspector for vulnerability management independently from AWS Security Hub. To learn more, see AWS Security Hub Pricing and AWS Security Hub documentation.
