Infrastructure security in AWS SDK for Swift
As a managed service, AWS SDK for Swift is protected by the AWS global network
security procedures that are described in the
Amazon
Web Services: Overview of Security Processes
You use AWS published API calls to access AWS SDK for Swift through the network. Clients must support Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.0 or later. We recommend TLS 1.2 or later. Clients must also support cipher suites with perfect forward secrecy (PFS) such as Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE) or Elliptic Curve Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (ECDHE). Most modern systems such as Java 7 and later support these modes.
Additionally, requests must be signed using an access key ID and a secret access key that is associated with an IAM principal. Or you can use the AWS Security Token Service (AWS STS) to generate temporary security credentials to sign requests.
