Infrastructure security in Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB

As a managed service, Amazon Timestream for InfluxDB is protected by the Amazon global network security procedures that are described in the Amazon Web Services: Overview of Security Processes whitepaper.

You use Amazon published control plane API calls to access Timestream for InfluxDB through the network. For more information, see Control planes and data planes. Clients must support Transport Layer Security (TLS) 1.2 or later. We recommend TLS 1.2 or 1.3. 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.

Timestream for InfluxDB is architected so that your traffic is isolated to the specific Amazon Region that your Timestream for InfluxDB instance resides in.

Security groups

Security groups control the access that traffic has in and out of a DB instance. By default, network access is turned off to a DB instance. You can specify rules in a security group that allow access from an IP address range, port, or security group. After ingress rules are configured, the same rules apply to all DB instances that are associated with that security group.
