# DMS endpoints for Neptune databases should have IAM authorization enabled
 
## Description{% #description %}

AWS DMS endpoints for Neptune databases should have IAM authorization enabled. IAM authorization provides an additional layer of security by using AWS Identity and Access Management with fine grained access controls to control access to your Neptune database.

## Remediation{% #remediation %}

Enable IAM authorization for your DMS Neptune endpoint. For specific details, consult [AWS DMS documentation](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/dms/latest/userguide/CHAP_Target.Neptune.html#CHAP_Target.Neptune.EndpointSettings)
