Amazon GuardDuty Malware Protection for AWS Backup

🔒 Amazon announced GuardDuty Malware Protection for AWS Backup, extending malware detection to backups of Amazon EC2 instances, Amazon EBS volumes, and Amazon S3 objects. The capability automatically scans new backups, supports on-demand scans of existing backups, and can identify the last known clean backup to reduce recovery impact. It offers incremental scanning to analyze only changed data between backups, lowering costs versus full rescans, and can be enabled even if GuardDuty foundational data sources are not active. The feature is available in supported Regions and accessible via the AWS Backup console, API, or CLI.
