Classification Scopes - Amazon Macie

Classification Scopes

The Classification Scopes resource provides a subset of information about the classification scope for your Amazon Macie account. The classification scope specifies Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) buckets that you don't want Macie to analyze when it performs automated sensitive data discovery. It defines an S3 bucket exclusion list for automated sensitive data discovery.

The first time you or your Macie administrator enables automated sensitive data discovery for your account, Macie automatically creates the classification scope for your account. If you have a standalone Macie account, Macie then uses the scope's settings to determine which S3 buckets to exclude from analyses. If your account is part of an organization that centrally manages multiple Macie accounts, Macie uses the scope settings for your Macie administrator's account to determine which buckets to exclude. Contact your Macie administrator for information about the settings for your organization.

If you're the Macie administrator for an organization or you have a standalone Macie account, you can use this resource to retrieve the unique identifier and name of the classification scope that Macie created for your account. You can then use the unique identifier to retrieve or update the scope's settings by using the Classification Scope resource.
