Ensure VPC endpoint policies are restrictive
VPC endpoints should have policies that restrict access to only required resources and principals.
Security Impact
Default endpoint policies allow full access to the service, which may violate least privilege principles.
How to Remediate
Configure VPC endpoint policies to allow only specific S3 buckets, DynamoDB tables, or other resources as needed.
