AWS configuration review

Most AWS risk sits in the settings around the workload: who can assume administrator access, which log can be disabled, and which store is reachable from the internet. We review the accounts in scope and separate an immediate guardrail from a design change.

A well-run account is one whose boundaries you can explain.
