AWS Backup Launches New Backup Vault Lock Console Experience
AWS Backup now offers a new Backup Vault Lock console experience that provides you a more intuitive way to configure your vault lock details. AWS Backup Vault Lock allows you to deploy and manage your vault’s immutability policies, protecting your backups from accidental or malicious deletions. Depending on your data retention needs, with AWS Backup Vault Lock, you can set governance mode or compliance mode to configure your vault’s immutability policies with greater flexibility and multiple levels of security. Under governance mode, users with the appropriate role-based permissions can test and change retention policies or even remove the lock completely. In compliance mode, the user can specify a lock date after which the vault is locked immutably. Once locked, the acceptable retention periods cannot be changed and the lock cannot be disabled even by the root user. With this feature, the console also provides you with visibility into into your vaults’ lock status and facilitates reporting across all locked vaults.

IAM Access Analyzer makes it easier to author and validate role trust policies
IAM Access Analyzer policy validation helps you author secure and functional policies. Now, we are extending policy validation to role trust policy to make it easier to author and validate the policy that determines who can assume a role. The new IAM console experience for role trust policy guides you to add each element of the policy, such as the list of available actions for role trust policies, and offers context specific documentation. As you are authoring your policy, IAM Access Analyzer policy validation evaluates the policy for any issues to make it easier for you to author secure policies. This includes new policy checks specific to role trust policies, such as validating the format of your identity provider. Prior to saving the policy, IAM Access Analyzer generates preview findings for the external access granted by the role trust policy. This helps you review external access, such as access granted to a federated identity provider, and ensure only the intended access is granted when the policy is created.
