Description
ElastiCache makes it easy to set up, manage, and scale distributed in-memory cache environments in the Cloud. It provides a high performance, resizable, and cost-effective in-memory cache. It was detected that the Elasticache Memcached cluster {AwsElasticacheMemcachedCluster} is using his default endpoint port: 11211. Changing the default port number will promote port obfuscation as an additional layer of defense against non-targeted attacks.
