AWS Security Agent, part of AWS Continuum, became available in three additional Regions—Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Singapore), and South America (São Paulo)—in mid-2026. This expansion provides localized customers with tools such as STRIDE-based threat modeling and full-repository code inspection to identify security risks early in development.

Integration with multiple code platforms and IDE plugins supports proactive security assessments and on-demand penetration testing workflows. While simulated validation remains US-only, these additions help organizations scale comprehensive security coverage alongside fast development cycles internationally.
