Hello,
We would like to inform you about upcoming changes to 3 AWS Trusted Advisor checks that will take effect on April 25, 2024. These updates are designed to provide more accurate and relevant recommendations based on the latest best practices and service enhancements.
- “IAM Use” (ID: ZXCkfM1nI3) is being phased out due to changes in its underlying best practices.
- “Security Groups - Specific Ports Unrestricted” (ID: HCP4007jGY) and “Security Groups - Unrestricted Access” (ID: 1iG5NDGVre) are being replaced as they did not account for customer-managed prefix lists being used to grant access in security groups.
If you have AWS Security Hub enabled, we recommend using the updated checks “Security groups should only allow unrestricted incoming traffic for authorized ports” (TA Check ID: Hs4Ma3G178, Security Hub Control ID: EC2.18) and “Security groups should not allow unrestricted access to ports with high risk” (TA Check ID: Hs4Ma3G204, Security Hub Control ID: EC2.19). These checks account for prefix lists and provide comprehensive security group monitoring.
To view these AWS Security Hub controls (EC2.18 and EC2.19) in Trusted Advisor, you must have a Business, Enterprise On-Ramp, or Enterprise Support plan. You can find your support plan from the AWS Support Center [1]. For more information, see Compare AWS Support plans [2].
If you have any questions or concerns regarding these changes, please don’t hesitate to contact AWS support [1].

Hello,
We are reaching out to notify you that AWS Managed Policy is making a change that will require your action. AWS Managed Policy is deprecating the managed policy "CloudWatchFullAccess" [1] and replacing it with "CloudWatchFullAccessV2" [2]. After December 7, 2023, "CloudWatchFullAccess" will no longer be supported.
We have identified resources in your account with the "CloudWatchFullAccess" managed policy and recommend that you review those resources to replace that managed policy with "CloudWatchFullAccessV2". Please refer to the 'Affected Resources' tab of your AWS Health Dashboard for a list of your resources affected by this change. If you do not take any action, the accounts with the policy attached to a user, group, or role, will continue to see the policy in the account but cannot attach the policy to new users, groups, or roles or view the deprecated policy in the AWS IAM Console.
The new policy includes:
- Autoscaling:Describe permissions so users with this policy can see the Auto Scaling actions that are associated with CloudWatch alarms
- SNS permissions so users with this policy can retrieve or create Amazon SNS topics and associate them with CloudWatch alarms
- IAM permissions so users with this policy can view information about service-linked roles associated with CloudWatch
- The oam:ListSinks and oam:ListAttachedLinks permissions so users with this policy can use the console to view data shared from source accounts in CloudWatch cross-account observability
If you have questions or concerns, please reach out to AWS Support [3].

Hello,
Amazon Managed Grafana will perform a planned maintenance for your workspace on the weekend of September 16, 2023 between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM PDT.
During this time the following will take place:
1. Your Amazon Managed Grafana workspace will be in "updating" state.
2. Logged-in users will see a banner in the workspace that says "Grafana is temporarily in read-only mode while it is updating".
3. Workspace users will NOT be able to create, edit, or delete any dashboards, data sources, alerts, or teams for up to 45 minutes. You will continue to receive alerts and view dashboards.
Amazon Managed Grafana recently launched support for updating your workspace version to 9.4. You can preempt this maintenance by updating your workspace to version 9.4 anytime before September 16, 2023, and gain access to the feature list in the following section.
Amazon Managed Grafana v9.4 new features:
* Plugin enhancements to support Amazon CloudWatch cross-account querying.
* Amazon OpenSearch Serverless, querying multiple asset properties from AWS IoT Sitewise.
* Query result reuse and async queries for Athena.
* Prometheus and Loki query builders that make it even easier to create and modify queries for your data sources.
* Service accounts to provide a secure and efficient way to automate tasks within your Grafana instance.
For instructions on how to update your workspace(s), see Amazon Managed Grafana service documentation [1]. We recommend testing the newer version in a non-production environment before updating a production workspace. You can also migrate your dashboards and data sources from your existing workspace to a new v9.4 workspace for testing, using the Amazon Managed Grafana Migrator tool [2].
Note that any Amazon Managed Grafana workspaces in CREATE_FAILED or DELETE_FAILED state will be deleted as a part of the maintenance. If you wish to resolve these states, or have concerns deleting these workspaces, please reach out to AWS Support [3] by September 11, 2023.
To learn more about Amazon Managed Grafana version differences, see the Amazon Managed Grafana service documentation [4].
The following is a list of your affected resource(s):
