Explanation

Amazon Macie is a fully managed service that automatically detects and classifies sensitive data stored in Amazon S3 using managed data identifiers. Macie can continuously monitor S3 buckets and provide detailed findings about sensitive data. By using an EventBridge rule, you can trigger notifications to the existing SNS topic whenever sensitive data is identified, offering a solution with minimal implementation effort. Macie is specifically designed for this purpose, making it the most efficient option.
