IAM Policy

A policy that allows restoring RDS databases. This policy also provides the permissions necessary to complete this action programmatically and in the console.

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI

A policy that allows tag owners full access to RDS resources that they have tagged (Tag key: Owner, Tag Value: <IAM username>). This policy provides the permissions necessary to complete this action using the AWS API or AWS CLI only.

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI

An IAM policy that allows users to only launch RDS instances of a specific instance type and database engine (Default: t2.micro and mysql).

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI

An IAM policy that grants permissions to allow a user to only create a DB instance that must use specific DB parameter group and DB security group.

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI

An IAM policy that prevents a user from deleting a specific DB instance.

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI
Config Rule

Checks whether storage encryption is enabled for your RDS DB instances.

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI

Checks whether high availability is enabled for your RDS DB instances. (Note: This rule does not evaluate Amazon Aurora databases.)

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI

Check that no RDS Instances are in Public Subnet.

CloudFormationTerraformAWS CLI
