How to Resolve Manually

This config rule checks whether storage encryption is enabled for a particular DocumentDB cluster. The rule will be marked as non-compliant if a cluster is configured without encryption.


Unfortunately, you cannot directly enable encryption for existing clusters. You'll need to create a new cluster with encryption enabled and migrate your data to the new cluster.


For detailed instructions, refer to the official AWS documentation here.
