Documentation

README

Excerpt

Ensure encryption in transit is enabled for Lambda environment variables

Description

As you can set your own environmental variables for Lambda it is important to also encrypt them for in transit protection.

Rationale

Lambda environment variables should be encrypted in transit for client-side protection as they can store sensitive information.

Impact

Enabling encryption in transit adds encryption overhead and may require updates to Lambda function code to decrypt environment variables at runtime.

Audit Procedure

Using AWS Console

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
