Implied technologies
Detecting Amazon Cognito implies these are in the stack too - a report lists them alongside it.
How we audit Amazon Cognito
We measure the detected version against Amazon Cognito's release history and grade the surrounding stack with a Lighthouse-grade quality audit. Weak or outdated links weigh more - one risky dependency can pull the whole score down.
