RDS DB snapshots should be tagged

Description

Flags Amazon RDS DB snapshots that have no user-defined tags. Tags help associate snapshots with their owning team and retention policy; untagged snapshots are operationally opaque.


Remediation

Apply at least one user-defined tag to every RDS DB snapshot.

Steps

  1. Open the Amazon RDS console and choose Snapshots.
  2. Select the affected snapshot and choose the Tags tab.
  3. Add at least one tag with a non-aws: prefixed key.
  4. Save the changes.
