Security Best Practices

When deploying and using Enforcer-CCA, we recommend adhering to the following security best practices to ensure your own environment remains bulletproof.

Least Privilege Principle

Always use least privilege when creating IAM roles for Enforcer-CCA integrations. Only grant the specific permissions required for the policies you intend to enforce.

API Key Management

• Rotate your API keys every 90 days.
• Never hardcode API keys in your CI/CD scripts; use secure secret managers (e.g., AWS Secrets Manager, HashiCorp Vault, GitHub Secrets).

Remediation Approval Workflows

While Enforcer-CCA supports fully autonomous self-healing, we recommend starting with manual approvals for destructive actions (like deleting unauthorized resources) until you are confident in your policy definitions.
