Description

AMIs must have their block device mappings encrypted to protect data at rest and prevent sensitive information from being exposed if snapshots are copied, shared, or recovered on different storage.

For Ansible tasks using the amazon.aws.ec2_ami or ec2_ami modules, each entry in the device_mapping must include encrypted: true. Resources missing the encrypted attribute or with encrypted: false are flagged. Ensure every device mapping explicitly sets encrypted: true so AMI snapshots and derived volumes remain encrypted.

Secure configuration example:

- name: Create AMI with encrypted device mapping
  amazon.aws.ec2_ami:
    name: my-encrypted-ami
    device_mapping:
      - device_name: /dev/sda1
        encrypted: true

Compliant Code Examples

- name: Basic AMI Creation
  amazon.aws.ec2_ami:
    instance_id: i-xxxxxx
    device_mapping:
      device_name: /dev/sda
      encrypted: yes
    wait: yes
    name: newtest
    tags:
      Name: newtest
      Service: TestService

Non-Compliant Code Examples

- name: Basic AMI Creation

      device_name: /dev/sda
      encrypted: no
    wait: yes
    name: newtest
    tags:
      Name: newtest
      Service: TestService
- name: Basic AMI Creation2
  amazon.aws.ec2_ami:
    instance_id: i-xxxxxx
    device_mapping:
      device_name: /dev/sda
    wait: yes
