Understanding the IAM:PassRole Permission

2023-08-24T02:44:43+00:00

Introduction Many AWS services often require the use of an IAM role to execute actions on your behalf. For example, when you create a Lambda function, you assign an execution role to it. AWS can generate one for you automatically, and then you define the permissions you want it to have after. Most of the time, that's the case. However, there are instances when you might choose to associate an existing IAM role. In practice, we often concentrate on which permissions a user is allowed to perform and which are off-limits. But what's often overlooked are the IAM roles a [...]

Customize Your Invite Links with Amazon S3 Website Redirect

2023-04-26T07:40:26+00:00

If you use Discord, Slack, or Telegram, you're probably familiar with those long and complicated invite links used to join servers or channels. These links can be difficult to remember and may even discourage some people from joining. With URL redirection, you can create a custom and easy-to-remember domain name for your invite links. For example, you might use a domain like "discord.mycoolsite.com" that redirects to the invitation page of your Discord server, which might look something like this: "discord.com/invite/aabbCCDD". Inviting people thru a custom domain can reinforce your brand and make it easier for others to share and join [...]

AWS Shared Responsibility Model

2023-04-10T04:05:05+00:00

Cloud computing is changing the way businesses operate by providing scalable, pay-as-you-go infrastructure and services. The shared pool of configurable computing resources is made up of thousands of powerful physical servers located in data centers around the world and equipped with enterprise-grade processors capable of creating hundreds or even thousands of virtual machines for multiple customers. However, one of the primary concerns when migrating a private infrastructure to a public cloud service provider is how the customer will manage their resources and ensure the integrity of the system and data. In AWS, security and compliance are shared responsibilities between the [...]

Managing Amazon GuardDuty Security Findings Across Multiple Accounts

2023-05-02T05:23:52+00:00

In our previous article, we discussed how GuardDuty can help organizations monitor their workloads and  AWS accounts from malicious activities and how to monitor findings with Amazon CloudWatch Events. Imagine that your organization has multiple AWS accounts for different workloads, teams, and projects. With every account, you need to monitor GuardDuty findings individually. It will be quite difficult for your security team to monitor these findings with their constant switching between AWS accounts.  Amazon GuardDuty supports the consolidation of these findings to one AWS account. For example, your organization has 10 AWS accounts. All you have to do is to [...]
