Key points
·
The AWS Security Hub Extended plan now includes Supply Chain Security as its 10th security category, with Chainguard and Socket as the curated partners.
·
As developers adopt open-source libraries at scale, security teams need confidence that the packages entering their environments are trustworthy and free from malicious code.
·
With this addition, you can detect and block malicious dependencies before they are built into your applications, with the same streamlined activation and pay-as-you-go pricing as every other Extended category.
·
This adds the Extended plan to 23 curated partner solutions.

AWS Security Hub Extended has introduced Supply Chain Security as its tenth category, integrating Chainguard and Socket as curated partners. This addition addresses growing concerns over malicious open-source dependencies by enabling security teams to identify and block risks before they are embedded in applications. The feature operates under the same pay-as-you-go pricing model as other Extended categories, with no long-term commitments required. All solutions are billed through a single AWS invoice, streamlining procurement and management for enterprises.

Security Hub Extended consolidates endpoint, identity, email, network, data, browser, cloud, AI, security operations, and now supply chain security into a unified platform. Findings from all participating solutions, including the new partners, are automatically aggregated in AWS Security Hub using the Open Cybersecurity Schema Framework (OCSF). This integration allows security teams to correlate risks across multiple domains, improving visibility and response capabilities without requiring additional tools or integrations.

The two new curated partner solutions—Chainguard and Socket—are available immediately in all AWS commercial Regions where Security Hub is supported. Customers can activate these solutions through the AWS Security Hub console or product page, with pricing details accessible via the AWS Security Hub pricing page. The addition brings the total number of curated partner solutions in the Extended plan to 23, reflecting AWS’s ongoing effort to expand its security ecosystem based on customer demand.

AWS plans to continue expanding the Extended plan’s capabilities, incorporating additional curated partners and security categories in response to feedback. The Supply Chain Security category joins existing protections to provide a more comprehensive security posture for enterprises. Organizations can begin leveraging these features today, with no upfront costs or long-term obligations, aligning with AWS’s pay-as-you-go pricing model.
