AWS Config now supports internal service linked rules

AWS Config now supports internal service linked rules, enabling AWS services to evaluate AWS resource configurations using AWS Config managed rules. Internal service linked rules extend the existing service linked recorder capability by allowing AWS services such as AWS Security Hub CSPM to deploy and manage rule evaluations for service specific functionality.

With internal service linked rules, AWS services can use AWS Config managed rules to provide integrated security and compliance capabilities. Evaluation results are delivered directly to the AWS service that deployed the rule at no charge from AWS Config to customers. Internal service linked rules operate independently of existing customer managed AWS Config recorders and rules. This allows customers to continue using AWS Config for inventory, governance, compliance, and auditing use cases while AWS services independently manage service specific evaluations.

AWS Security Hub CSPM internal service-linked rules are now available in all commercial, GovCloud, and China Regions. To learn more, see the AWS Config documentation.
