AWS Control Tower improves control operations at scale
AWS Control Tower customers can now submit up to 100 control operations concurrently. These operations can span multiple organizational units, reducing the operational burden from repetitive execution. Enabling multiple controls at scale provides a consistent, standardized configuration across multiple AWS accounts. To monitor the status of the ongoing and queued control operations, customers can either navigate to the new ‘Recent Operations’ page in the AWS Control Tower console or use the new ‘ListControlOperations’ API.
AWS Control Tower library today has more than 500 controls that map to different control objectives, frameworks and services. Customers can now choose to enable multiple controls for a specific control objective such as ‘Encrypt data at rest’ in a single control operation to facilitate accelerated development and faster adoption of best practice controls.
AWS Control Tower offers a simple, efficient way to set up and govern a secure, multi-account AWS environment based on AWS best practices. You can automate the creation of AWS accounts using AWS Control Tower’s account factory and enable governance features at scale such as controls, centralized logging, and monitoring.
