You can use CloudWatch Events with GuardDuty to set up automated finding alerts by sending GuardDuty finding events to a messaging hub to help increase the visibility of GuardDuty findings. This topic shows you how to send findings alerts to email, Slack, or Amazon Chime by setting up an SNS topic and then connecting that topic to an CloudWatch Events event rule. https://docs.aws.amazon.com/guardduty/latest/ug/guardduty_findings_cloudwatch.html
