App Runner uses Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC) to create boundaries between resources in your App Runner application and control traffic between them, your on-premises network, and the internet. For more information about Amazon VPC security, see [Internetwork traffic privacy in Amazon VPC](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/vpc/latest/userguide/VPC_Security.html) in the *Amazon VPC User Guide*.

For information about associating your App Runner application with a custom Amazon VPC, see [Enabling VPC access for outgoing traffic](network-vpc.md).

For information about securing requests to App Runner using a VPC endpoint, see [Using App Runner with VPC endpoints](security-vpce.md).
