Last Update hace 6 meses

Trigger type: Configuration changes
AWS Region: All supported AWS regions except Europe (Spain), Europe (Zurich) Region
How to Resolve Manually
To resolve this manually, you will need to edit your RDS Instance and head to the additional configuration section. Here you can enable encryption and select a KMS Key. The Default AWS RDS one will work for your account, but it's best practice to create your own in KMS and use this instead.
By default, new RDS Instances have this section enabled, so your Instance should be created with storage encryption enabled.
How to Resolve with StackZone
You can resolve with StackZone by using the storage encryption remediation, which will ensure all of your RDS Instances are encrypted.
To enable this, head to Baseline Services -> Amazon RDS and ensure that RDS Encryption Enabled Remediation is set to true
