Threat Reaction Documentation

Threat Reaction is a self-hosted, serverless AWS security platform. It sits on top of Amazon GuardDuty and adds a real-time policy engine, an anomaly detector for S3 data exfiltration, and a full audit trail of every containment action — all running inside your own AWS account with no data leaving your infrastructure.

What does it do?

  • Ingests GuardDuty findings via EventBridge and lets you configure a response (IGNORE, REPORT, BLOCK, REVOKE, or SAVE) per finding type and severity.
  • Detects S3 anomalies using a sliding-window detector watching CloudTrail data events for exfiltration, ransomware writes, mass deletes, and enumeration sweeps.
  • Executes containment actions automatically: blocking attacker IPs via WAF / Security Groups, revoking compromised IAM credentials, and publishing findings to SNS for downstream alerting.
  • Provides a single-page management UI accessible via CloudFront — no servers to manage, no VPN required.
