Configuring AWS permissions for CloudPoint
To protect your Amazon Web Services (AWS) assets, CloudPoint must first have access to them. You must associate a permission policy with each CloudPoint user who wants to work with AWS assets.
Ensure that the user account or role is assigned the minimum permissions required for CloudPoint.
See AWS permissions required by CloudPoint.
To configure permissions on Amazon Web Services
- Create or edit an AWS user account from Identity and Access Management (IAM).
- Do one of the following.
To create a new AWS user account, do the following:
From IAM, select the Users pane and click Add user.
In the User name field, enter a name for the new user.
Select the Access type. This value determines how AWS accesses the permission policy. (This example uses Programmatic access).
Select Next: Permissions.
On the Set permissions for username screen, select Attach existing policies directly.
Select the previously created permission policy (shown below) and select Next: Review.
On the Permissions summary page, select Create user.
Obtain the Access Key and Secret Key for the newly created user.
To edit an AWS user account, do the following:
Select Add permissions.
On the Grant permissions screen, select Attach existing policies directly.
Select the previously created permission policy (shown below), and select Next: Review.
On the Permissions summary screen, select Add permissions.
- To configure the AWS plug-in for the created or edited user, refer to the plug-in configuration notes.
