How to Resolve Manually

This config rule checks if root access is enabled for a particular Notebook Instance. The rule will be flagged as non-compliant if one instance is found with root access enabled.


In order to resolve this, go to Amazon SageMaker service within the AWS Console and then click on Notebook > Notebook instances from the lefthand menu. From there, you will see a list of all the instances deployed. Locate the one that is not in compliance and click on its name to enter to the Settings page.


To disable root access, you will need to stop the notebook first, so click on Stop button and wait until the instance is fully stopped. Then click on Edit button located in the Notebook instance settings tab.

From there, find the Permissions and encryption card to disable the root access, as shown in the following screenshot, and finally click on Update notebook instance button to save the settings.


Remember to start the instance again if you need to do so.
