What is this?
Enterprise security on AWS layers identity, detective controls, encryption, network segmentation, and centralized logging across Organizations.
Why should you care?
AwsVerse landing zone enables GuardDuty, Config, CloudTrail org trail, and SCPs before any workload account launches.
See it live — copy this example
Run in AWS CloudShell / local AWS CLI v2, or follow the matching steps in the AWS Console (Free Tier).
aws organizations create-policy \
--name DenyUnencryptedS3Uploads \
--type SERVICE_CONTROL_POLICY \
--content '{"Version":"2012-10-17","Statement":[{"Effect":"Deny","Action":"s3:PutObject","Resource":"*","Condition":{"StringNotEquals":{"s3:x-amz-server-side-encryption":"aws:kms"}}}]}'
What happened?
- SCP denies S3 uploads without KMS encryption org-wide.
- Even admins in member accounts cannot store unencrypted objects.
Practice next
- Enable org CloudTrail to log archive account.
- Deploy GuardDuty in all regions.
- Apply CIS benchmark conformance pack via Config.
- Add IAM Access Analyzer org-wide.
- Automate Config remediation for open SG rules.
Remember
Defense in depth across accounts. SCPs enforce guardrails. Central security tooling account.
