💼 [APIGateway.5] API Gateway REST API cache data should be encrypted at rest

  • Contextual name: 💼 [APIGateway.5] API Gateway REST API cache data should be encrypted at rest
  • ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/api-gateway/05
  • Located in: 💼 API Gateway

Description​

Encrypting data at rest reduces the risk of data stored on disk being accessed by a user not authenticated to AWS. It adds another set of access controls to limit unauthorized users ability access the data. For example, API permissions are required to decrypt the data before it can be read.

API Gateway REST API caches should be encrypted at rest for an added layer of security.
