AWS Control Tower’s Region deny guardrail expands to include additional AWS Chatbot, Amazon S3 Storage Lens, and Amazon S3 Multi Region Access points APIs

AWS Control Tower has updated its Region deny guardrail to include additional AWS global service APIs to assist in retrieving configuration settings, dashboard information, and support for an interactive chat agent. The Region deny guardrail, ‘Deny access to AWS based on the requested AWS Region’, assists you in limiting access to AWS services and operations for enrolled accounts in your AWS Control Tower environment. The AWS Control Tower Region deny guardrail helps ensure that any customer data you upload to AWS services is located only in the AWS Regions that you specify. You can select the AWS Region or Regions in which your customer data is stored and processed.

AWS Control Tower now reduces AWS Config configuration items by only recording global resources in home Regions

AWS Control Tower now helps reduce redundant AWS Config configuration items by limiting recording of global resources to home Regions only. Previously, AWS Control Tower configured AWS Config to record global resources in all Regions. Since global resources are not tied to a specific AWS Region, changes to global resources are identical across Regions. Limiting recording for global resources (such as IAM users, groups, roles, and customer managed polices) means redundant copies of global resource changes are no longer stored in every Region. This update brings resource recording into conformance with AWS Config best practices. A full list of global resources is available in AWS Config documentation.
