Yes, but Amazon's schedule involves them having advance, non-public knowledge of major security flaws. In some ways, you've got a false sense of security.

Well the bash vulnerability and then immediate disclose of another vulnerability makes that statement pretty moot.

We also have deeply layered non-hetereogenous kit so you have to punch hard to get through it all to something useful.
