To integrate AWS Elastic Compute Cloud into Regulait, on the Available Integrations page, click on the Elastic Compute Cloud icon (marked with an arrow below).

In the "Add Integration" window below, we must provide the AWS Access Key and Secret Key.

Before obtaining these keys, we need to ensure that our Elastic Compute Cloud users in the AWS system have Read-Only Permissions.

These permissions are crucial for the Regulait system to gather information from the Integration App.

Regulait only requires Read-Only access, as it retrieves data solely for compliance purposes, without making any changes, deletions, or additions to the Elastic Compute Cloud system.

Below we see the AWS Console home page, we'll click on the IAM (Identity and Access Management) button (marked with an arrow below) to access User Groups and Permissions.

If, for some reason, you do not see an IAM button on the main Console page, search for "IAM" in the site's search bar.
