Control: DynamoDB Accelerator (DAX) clusters should be encrypted at rest
Description
This control checks whether a DAX cluster is encrypted at rest. Encrypting data at rest reduces the risk of data stored on disk being accessed by a user not authenticated to AWS. The encryption adds another set of access controls to limit the ability of unauthorized users to access to the data. For example, API permissions are required to decrypt the data before it can be read.
Usage
Run the control in your terminal:
powerpipe control run terraform_aws_compliance.control.dax_cluster_encryption_at_rest_enabled
Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:
