Configure secure access and restrict access to content - Amazon CloudFront

CloudFront provides several options for securing content that it delivers. The following are some ways you can use CloudFront to secure and restrict access to content:

  • Configure HTTPS connections

  • Prevent users in specific geographic locations from accessing content

  • Require users to access content using CloudFront signed URLs or signed cookies

  • Set up field-level encryption for specific content fields

  • Use AWS WAF to control access to your content

You should also implement a DDoS-resilient architecture for your infrastructure and applications. For more information, see AWS Best Practices for DDoS Resiliency.
