CloudTrail Trail Insights Exist

Overview​

CloudTrail Insights provides a powerful way to search and analyze CloudTrail log data using pre-built queries and machine learning algorithms. This can help you to identify potential security threats and suspicious activity in near real-time, such as unauthorized access attempts, policy changes, or resource modifications.
