Infrastructure security in Amazon ElastiCache
As a managed service, Amazon ElastiCache is protected by the Amazon global network security
procedures that are described in the Security and Compliance section at Amazon Architecture Center
You use Amazon published API calls to access ElastiCache through the network. Clients must support Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 or later. We recommend TLS 1.3 or later. Clients must also support cipher suites with perfect forward secrecy (PFS) such as Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (DHE) or Elliptic Curve Ephemeral Diffie-Hellman (ECDHE). Most modern systems such as Java 7 and later support these modes.
Additionally, requests must be signed by using an access key ID and a secret access key that is associated with an IAM principal. Or you can use the Amazon Security Token Service (Amazon STS) to generate temporary security credentials to sign requests.
