# Implementing AWS Config Rules for Compliance
## When to Use
- When establishing continuous compliance monitoring for AWS resources against regulatory standards
- When implementing automated detection and remediation of configuration drift
- When building a compliance dashboard across multiple AWS accounts using AWS Organizations
- When audit teams require evidence of continuous compliance rather than point-in-time assessments
- When deploying guardrails that detect non-compliant resources within minutes of creation
**Do not use** for real-time threat detection (use GuardDuty), for application vulnerability scanning (use Inspector), or for one-time compliance assessments (use Prowler for faster ad-hoc audits).
