AWS Firewall Manager adds support for AWS Managed Rules for AWS Network Firewall

AWS Firewall Manager now allows you to centrally configure AWS Managed Rules for AWS Network Firewall policies, enabling you to stay up to date on the latest security threats without writing and maintaining your own firewall rules.

AWS managed rules are automatically updated to provide you with protection against new vulnerabilities and threats. Starting today, AWS Firewall Manager can centrally configure AWS Managed Rules for your network firewalls across all your accounts, simplifying deployment. There is no additional charge for using AWS Managed Rules for AWS Network Firewall. You can get started with AWS Managed Rules for Network Firewall for new and existing Network Firewall policies.
