AWS Lambda Functions Risk Mitigation

### Executive Summary This blog post explains security challenges in serverless architectures—particularly AWS Lambda—including expanded attack surface from multiple event sources, vulnerabilities in function code and dependencies, and risks from embedded secrets and overly permissive permissions. It describes how Aqua CSP integrates into CI/CD to scan for vulnerabilities, malware, misconfigurations and sensitive data, and how it provides runtime protections (whitelisting and behavior monitoring) to mitigate injection and serialization attacks, with references to OWASP risks and an AWS partnership.
