Redshift Serverless workgroups should prohibit public access¶

This control checks whether public access is disabled for an Amazon Redshift Serverless workgroup. It evaluates the publiclyAccessible property of a Redshift Serverless workgroup. The control fails if public access is enabled (true) for the workgroup.

How to fix¶

Attribute publicly_accessible of aws_redshiftserverless_workgroup must be false.

Implementation options¶

Choose the option that matches how you manage Terraform. All options satisfy this control.

Option 1: Terraform AWS provider resources¶

If you manage resources directly, configure the relevant Terraform AWS provider resources to meet this control. See docs for the resources involved: aws_redshiftserverless_workgroup.

resource "aws_redshiftserverless_workgroup" "this" {
  namespace_name = "example-namespace"
  workgroup_name = "pofix-example-workgroup"

  publicly_accessible = false
}

Which option should I choose?

Compliance.tf module (recommended): controls enforced by default and mapped to frameworks.
Open source module (terraform-aws-modules): compatible by design with compliance.tf. Same variable names for an easy, low-change migration path when you are ready.
Terraform AWS provider resources: manage Terraform resources directly.
