ECS/Fargate Security

ECS and Fargate security covers the configuration, networking, and IAM controls required to run containerized workloads securely on AWS's container services. Key controls include applying task IAM roles with least privilege, using VPC endpoints to avoid public traffic, enabling CloudTrail logging for ECS API actions, scanning task definition images for vulnerabilities, and configuring security groups to restrict inter-service traffic.

Fargate's serverless model eliminates host management but requires careful network and IAM policy design.
