Ensure EC2 instances do not have multiple ENIs unless required
EC2 instances with multiple Elastic Network Interfaces (ENIs) should be reviewed to ensure the configuration is required.
Security Impact
Multiple ENIs can create complex network configurations that are difficult to secure and audit.
How to Remediate
Review instances with multiple ENIs. Remove unnecessary ENIs to simplify network configuration and security.
