Integrated AWS Config controls available in AWS Control Tower
AWS Control Tower is integrated with AWS Config to provide selected additional detective controls that help you monitor and manage your AWS environment. These AWS Config controls are available in the AWS Control Tower console. The Control owner field for these controls is displayed as AWS Config.
You can enable and disable the controls through the console or the AWS Control Tower EnableControl
and DisableControl
APIs. They are viewable programmatically by calling the controlcatalog GetControl
and ListControls
APIs.
In AWS Config, these integrated controls are listed by identifier.
In the AWS Control Tower console and APIs, the integrated controls are shown with names that summarize their function.
For more information about AWS Config and these managed controls, see List of AWS Config managed rules in the AWS Config Developer Guide.
