💼 [DynamoDB.7] DynamoDB Accelerator clusters should be encrypted in transit

  • Contextual name: 💼 [DynamoDB.7] DynamoDB Accelerator clusters should be encrypted in transit
  • ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/dynamodb/07
  • Located in: 💼 DynamoDB

Description​

HTTPS (TLS) can be used to help prevent potential attackers from using person-in-the-middle or similar attacks to eavesdrop on or manipulate network traffic. You should only allow encrypted connections over TLS to access DAX clusters. However, encrypting data in transit can affect performance. You should test your application with encryption turned on to understand the performance profile and the impact of TLS.
