In recent years, the Zero Trust model has been emerging in the IT world: the idea that you are skeptical about identities and constantly verifies users. But how do you build such a thing without driving users insane by typing in additional codes or other security questions?
It’s well-known that AWS Config is a powerful service for monitoring all changes across your resources. As AWS Config has constantly evolved and improved over the years, it has transformed into a true powerhouse for monitoring your deployment’s compliance. Monitoring for compliance — whether for HIPAA, CIS, internal auditors, etc. — is a detailed and complicated process, and it’s of utmost importance to provide a clear history of all actions so that auditors can easily assess and approve your organization. With that in mind, let’s check out the following three best practices to use AWS Config for Compliance.
Joe Nemer posted a great blog about Compliance best practices on AWS config. Read his blog article here for more info and details.
Architecture diagrams are a great way to communicate your design, deployment, and topology. AWS has published an official collection of AWS Architecture Icons (formerly Simple Icons) that contain AWS product icons, resources, and other tools to help you build diagrams.
Customers and partners are permitted by AWS to use the resources below to create architecture diagrams. The icons are designed to be simple so that you can easily incorporate them in your diagrams and put them in your whitepapers, presentations, datasheets, posters, or any technical material.
Get started with one of these toolkits.
Microsoft PowerPoint
Compatible with Microsoft PowerPoint 2013 and newer (.pptx format).
Compatible with legacy Microsoft PowerPoint versions (.ppt format).
What makes this so good is that they were the same ones as used in the official VMware Validated Design Documentation!
What’s new?
These are screenshots of what is included in the new Visio files. Keep in mind that these are SDDC focused so you will find Compute, Network and Storage icons with a strong focus on the SDDC within the set.
So how do you get hold of the Visio files?
Simply go to the direct link on the VMTN forums here. Read the instructions on the page from Ryan, as these will make using the icons much easier! – Don’t forget to like the page if you find them useful.
Also, be sure to check out the VMware Validated Design Documentation to give you an idea of how they should be displayed.
