💼 2.1.4 Ensure Organizational Units are structured by environment and sensitivity (Manual

  • ID: /frameworks/cis-aws-v7.0.0/02/01/04

Description​

Ensure that AWS Organizations Organizational Units (OUs) are structured primarily by environment (for example, production, non-production, sandbox) and sensitivity (for example, security, logging, shared services, regulated workloads), rather than mirroring the corporate org chart. OUs should group accounts that share similar security requirements and controls so that appropriate authorization policies and other guardrails can be applied consistently at the OU level.
