Configuration and vulnerability analysis in Amazon Redshift

AWS handles basic security tasks like guest operating system (OS) and database patching, firewall configuration, and disaster recovery (DR). These procedures have been reviewed by certified third parties. For more information, see Compliance validation for Amazon Redshift, the Shared responsibility model, and Best Practices for Security, Identity, and Compliance.
