Update AWS VPC Connection Credentials

If you create a new access key and secret access key to connect to the AWS VPC, you must update the connection credentials in Security Cloud Control. To do this, first update the credentials in the AWS console. Next, update the credentials in the Security Cloud Control console by using this procedure. For more information, refer to Managing Access Keys for IAM Users (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_access-keys.html) or Creating, Disabling, and Deleting Access Keys for Your AWS Account Root User (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/managing-aws-access-keys.html).

You cannot change the access key or secret access key from Security Cloud Control. You must manually manage the connection credentials using the AWS console or the AWS CLI console.

Note

If multiple AWS VPCs are onboarded to your Security Cloud Control tenant, you must update the credentials for one device at a time.
