  2. In the navigation pane, under AWS Shield choose Protected resources.

  3. Choose Add resources to protect.

  4. In the Choose resources to protect with Shield Advanced page, in Specify the Region and resource types, provide the Region and resource type specifications for the resources that you want to protect. You can protect resources in multiple Regions by selecting All Regions and you can narrow the selection to global resources by selecting Global. You can deselect any resource types that you do not want to protect. For information about protections for your resource types, see List of resources that AWS Shield Advanced protects.

  6. In the Select Resources section, you can filter the list of resources by entering a string to search for in the resource listings.

    Select the resources that you want to protect.

  7. In the Tags section, if you want to add tags to the Shield Advanced protections that you are creating, specify those. For information about tagging AWS resources, see Working with Tag Editor.
