Application and Network Load Balancer listeners should use secure protocols to encrypt data in transit
FSBP
Description
Confirms that ALB listeners use HTTPS and NLB listeners use TLS for encrypted data transmission.
Remediation
To configure secure protocols for your load balancer listeners, you need to update the listener protocol settings.
Steps
- Navigate to the Amazon EC2 console
- Go to 'Load Balancers' and select your load balancer
- Select the listener you want to configure
- Choose 'Edit' and go to 'Protocol' settings
- For Application Load Balancer: Change protocol to 'HTTPS'
- For Network Load Balancer: Change protocol to 'TLS'
- Configure SSL/TLS certificate if needed
- Save the changes to apply the secure protocol
