Typical questions

FAQ

Q: How do I deploy a secure two-tier ECS and RDS environment? A: You deploy a secure two-tier ECS and RDS environment by hardening the ECS application tier and configuring strict security controls for the RDS data tier. ECS instances must be secured with proper security groups, ENIs, and MLPS 2.0 compliance baselines. RDS is then protected by restricting IP whitelists to the ECS security group CIDRs, enabling SSL encryption, and applying enhanced access control.
