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 cluster has disabled At-Rest Encryption. Data encryption helps prevent unauthorized users from reading sensitive data available on your Redis clusters and their associated cache storage systems.
