I’m surprised this hasn’t come up more frequently. I’d expect a lot of security products to flag it as very much looking like malware.
- scarface_74 2y agoThe System Manager Agent on EC2 instances is meant to have enough privileges to manage fleet of instances at scale. System Manager Session Manager (yes that’s the real name) is a part of it. What do you suggest as an alternative? Session Manager is IAM controlled and much more secure and easily managed than the traditional means involving direct access via SSH and opening a port through the security group for a certain IP address or a jump box server.
