AssociateDRTRole

Authorizes the Shield Response Team (SRT) using the specified role, to access your AWS account to assist with DDoS attack mitigation during potential attacks. This enables the SRT to inspect your AWS WAF configuration and logs and to create or update AWS WAF rules and web ACLs.

You can associate only one RoleArn with your subscription. If you submit this update for an account that already has an associated role, the new RoleArn will replace the existing RoleArn.

This change requires the following:

You must be subscribed to the Business Support plan or the Enterprise Support plan.
The AWSShieldDRTAccessPolicy managed policy must be attached to the role that you specify in the request. You can access this policy in the IAM console at AWSShieldDRTAccessPolicy. For information, see Adding and removing IAM identity permissions.
The role must trust the service principal drt.shield.amazonaws.com. For information, see IAM JSON policy elements: Principal.

The SRT will have access only to your AWS WAF and Shield resources. By submitting this request, you provide permissions to the SRT to inspect your AWS WAF and Shield configuration and logs, and to create and update AWS WAF rules and web ACLs on your behalf. The SRT takes these actions only if explicitly authorized by you.
