Amazon GuardDuty added support for AWS Organizations declarative policies, enabling centralized activation and consistent configuration of threat detection across all accounts and Regions within an organization. This ensures harmonized security posture without manual per-account adjustments.
The policy framework supports default settings across Regions with the possibility of Region-specific overrides. Policies are maintained automatically as new accounts join, preventing configuration drift. Enablement enforced by policies cannot be overridden by console or API, enhancing security management.
