💼 Protecting Data at Rest

  • ID: /frameworks/aws-well-architected/security/data-protection/sec08

Description

Data at rest represents any data that you persist in non-volatile storage for any duration in your workload. This includes block storage, object storage, databases, archives, IoT devices, and any other storage medium on which data is persisted. Protecting your data at rest reduces the risk of unauthorized access, when encryption and appropriate access controls are implemented.
