💼 [EC2.1] Amazon EBS snapshots should not be publicly restorable

  • Contextual name: 💼 [EC2.1] Amazon EBS snapshots should not be publicly restorable
  • ID: /frameworks/aws-fsbp-v1.0.0/ec2/01
  • Located in: 💼 Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2)

Description

EBS snapshots are used to back up the data on your EBS volumes to Amazon S3 at a specific point in time. You can use the snapshots to restore previous states of EBS volumes. It is rarely acceptable to share a snapshot with the public. Typically the decision to share a snapshot publicly was made in error or without a complete understanding of the implications.
