• How to Improve Your Security Posture in Just a Few Clicks with AWS IAM Access Analyzer

  After observing the findings in an environment using AWS IAM Identity Center (formerly AWS SSO) to manage identities and access, we can see that we have a lot of findings related to the IAM Identity Center roles and the SAML provider which the IAM IC creates in each account. The Access analyzer considers these SAML providers external to the Organization because theoretically you could federate with Identity... - Source: dev.to / about 2 months ago

• AWS Users, Roles, and Identity Center Demystified

  Human users using Roles can leverage IAM Identity Center (formerly AWS SSO) which offers a pretty good experience, whether we're federating from Active Directory (a popular choice for enterprises) or managing users within Identity Center (fine for individuals or small team). We get an easy console sign-in experience and similarly frictionless command line access. - Source: dev.to / 11 months ago

• Make desktop application prompt for IAM username and password?

  I would highly recommend not using IAM directly for this. Managing it will be an exercise in pain and suffering. At the very least, set up IAM Identity Center and tie it into your org IdP (or just provision users within IAM IC). The user experience of signing in and using this is so much better than legacy IAM users. You'll be able to create a permission set with the required privileges and then assign that to...

• Is AWS Landing Zone Accelerator any good?

  I think it’s been superseded by Control Tower, right? Landing Zones solutions refer to the days when there wasn’t an actual service that did account vending and policy. Https://aws.amazon.com/controltower/. Source: 6 months ago

• Receiving Slack notifications when CloudTrail logging gets turned off

  Amazon CloudTrail is the surveillance camera for our accounts. It records every API call that any users or roles make. If we have multiple accounts set up in AWS Organizations, we can create a central trail in the management account. We can then enable logging to all accounts and all regions. Or, if we use Control Tower to set up the account structure, we don't need to do anything because it will automatically... - Source: dev.to / 9 months ago

• Presenting AWS Speakers Directory, an AI Hackathon Project

  Deploy our application to sandbox, test, and production environments in a multi-account AWS organization managed by Control Tower. - Source: dev.to / 10 months ago

• Testing your Landing Zone when using AWS Deployment Framework

  Build your own… In this post I am focussing on ADF. The benefit of ADF over AWS Control Tower is that you have more control over the framework. All resources run in your accounts and are under your control. AWS Control Tower is a managed service by AWS. Giving less flexibility but remove maintenance burden. - Source: dev.to / over 1 year ago

• An AWS account just for getting into other AWS accounts
