Relevant to most of the Principles covered by the Good Practice Guide, a Landing Zone is a solution available from AWS that automatically creates an environment consisting of a set of related AWS accounts configured in such a way as to establish security (and cost-related) guardrails for AWS usage by a wide variety of teams with minimum friction. The environment includes the foundations of identity management, logging and monitoring, governance, security, and network design, the specifics of which may be implemented using decisions made in examining each of the principles covered in the overall security governance document. | ||
AWS Control Tower | https://docs.aws.amazon.com/controltower/latest/userguide/security.html | AWS Control Tower is a well-architected service that can help your organization meet your compliance needs with controls and best practices. Additionally, third-party auditors assess the security and compliance of a number of the services you can use in your landing zone as a part of multiple AWS compliance programs. These include SOC, PCI, FedRAMP, HIPAA, and others. Your compliance responsibility when using AWS Control Tower is determined by the sensitivity of your data, your company’s compliance objectives, and applicable laws and regulations. |
