S3 general purpose buckets with versioning enabled should have Lifecycle configurations
NIST 800-53
Description
Checks whether an Amazon S3 general purpose versioned bucket has a Lifecycle configuration. The control fails if the versioned bucket doesn't have a Lifecycle configuration.
Remediation
Create a Lifecycle configuration for versioned S3 buckets to define actions during an object's lifetime.
Steps
- Open the Amazon S3 console.
- Select the bucket and choose the 'Management' tab.
- Under 'Lifecycle rules', create a rule to manage object versions (e.g., transition or expiration).
- Save the rule and verify it appears in the Lifecycle configuration.
