AWS::CloudFront::OriginAccessControl

Creates a new origin access control in CloudFront. After you create an origin access control, you can add it to an origin in a CloudFront distribution so that CloudFront sends authenticated (signed) requests to the origin.

For an Amazon S3 origin, this makes it possible to block public access to the Amazon S3 bucket so that viewers (users) can access the content in the bucket only through CloudFront.

For more information about using a CloudFront origin access control, see Restricting access to an Amazon S3 origin in the Amazon CloudFront Developer Guide.
