AWS Introduces Resource Configuration Enforcement for Security

/ 1 min read

🔒🌐 AWS Introduces Resource Configuration Enforcement for Enhanced Security. Amazon Web Services (AWS) has unveiled a new approach for security administrators to enforce resource configurations through CloudFormation Hooks, ensuring that only approved AWS features are utilized. This method, known as Resource Configuration Enforcement (RCFGE), allows DevOps teams to provision resources within defined boundaries while maintaining control over new configurations. By utilizing externalized validation rules stored in Amazon S3, organizations can manage compliance at scale. The solution also incorporates feature gating, restricting access to new AWS capabilities until explicitly approved, thereby enhancing governance and security across AWS environments. This proactive strategy aims to balance flexibility for development teams with stringent security measures.
