Description
Amazon DynamoDB Accelerator(DAX) is a fully managed, highly available, in-memory cache for Amazon DynamoDB. When using DAX clusters, encrypting data at rest is a highly recommended option. Encrypting data at rest reduces the risk that a user that is not authenticated will be able to access data stored on disk. We have found that the DAX cluster {AwsDaxCluster} Encryption at rest option is DISABLED
