Use security configurations to set up Amazon EMR cluster security

Focus mode
Use security configurations to set up Amazon EMR cluster security - Amazon EMR

You can use Amazon EMR security configurations to configure data encryption, Kerberos authentication, and Amazon S3 authorization for EMRFS on your clusters. First, you create a security configuration. Then, the security configuration is available to use and re-use when you create clusters.

You can use the AWS Management Console, the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), or the AWS SDKs to create security configurations. You can also use an AWS CloudFormation template to create a security configuration. For more information, see AWS CloudFormation User Guide and the template reference for AWS::EMR::SecurityConfiguration.
