Steps to Gather AWS Credentials

To setup the connector between SecurEnds and AWS, you will need to create a Policy, Users, and add them both to a created Group.

  • IMPORTANT:
    • The AWS admin who is setting up the SecurEnds service account on the AWS side will need to have correct permissions.
    • The AWS admin will also need all the permissions to that service account so SecurEnds can pull all the required details.
    • If any of the two above points are missing, the SecurEnds connector will pull only the entitlements and users which the admin is entitled to.
Step 1: Create a Policy
  1. Login to your instance of AWS
  2. Select Identity and Access Management (IAM) > Access management > Policies
  3. Select Create policy and add the following options to the policy:
    • Service
      • Select IAM
    • Actions
      • Select List and Read
    • Resources
      • Select ALL resources
Step 2: Create a Group
  • Select Identity and Access Management (IAM) > Access management > Groups
  • Select Create New Group
  • Give a Group name and select Next Step
  • Select the Policy created in Step 1 and select Next Step
  • Review and select Create Group
Step 3: Create and Add User to a Group
  • Select Identity and Access Management (IAM) > Access management > Users
  • Select Add user
  • Give a Group Name and select Next Permissions
  • Select Add user to group, then select the created Group from Step 2, and select Next: Tags
  • If needed, add tags to the user group
    • Select Next: Review to skip or move on to the next step
Note: this step is optional and not required for setup
  • Review and select Create user
  • Download the .csv file
  • Copy/Save the Access Key and Secret Key for use when setting up the application within SecurEnds
Note, this is the only opportunity to view and save the token
