S3 Configuration - Setup Guide (Amazon S3)

1. Visit the AWS CloudWatch Management Console.
2. Navigate to Dashboards.
3. Select the dashboard starting with the name bucketav followed by the name of the AWS region—for example, bucketav-eu-west-1.
4. Find the Buckets tile. Enable real-time file scanning for each bucket you want by clicking the Enable button.
5. Enable scheduled bucket scanning for each bucket you want by clicking the Enable button.

Optionally, follow these steps to test your real-time scanning configuration:

1. Upload a file to one of your S3 buckets enabled for real-time scanning.
2. Click on the uploaded file.
3. Scroll down to the Tags box. Within a few seconds, the bucketav tag is added with the scan result (reload the page if needed).
4. To simulate an infected file, we recommend using the EICAR test file.
