AWS Config now supports 191 additional managed rules

AWS Config has significantly expanded its managed rule set by adding 191 new rules. These new rules enhance governance across critical AWS services like Amazon Bedrock, SageMaker, ECS, EKS, RDS, Redshift, S3, and CloudTrail. The expansion specifically boosts governance for AI workloads and core cloud infrastructure components. New rules cover essential configurations such as encryption, logging, public access restrictions, network security, and data protection best practices. These managed rules can be deployed individually or as part of conformance packs. The rules are available in AWS Regions where the corresponding AWS services are supported. Examples of new rules focus on specific service security and operational aspects. These include checks for encryption at rest and in transit for various services. Logging configurations for auditing and troubleshooting are also covered by the new rules. Network access controls and public access prohibitions are addressed through these additions. Overall, this update provides broader and deeper automated governance capabilities within AWS.
