Unencrypted S3 bucket.

Property Value
Language terraform
Severity high
Service s3
Provider AWS
Vulnerability Type omission

Description

The S3 bucket is not configured with server-side encryption, leaving stored data unprotected at rest. This means data in the bucket could be accessed in plaintext if security controls fail.

Impact

If the bucket is compromised, attackers can directly read all stored objects without needing to bypass any encryption, increasing the risk of data theft, regulatory violations, and potential reputational harm to the organization.

Resolution

Configure bucket encryption
