Checks whether the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) encryption feature is enabled for each ApsaraDB for Redis instance. If so, the evaluation result is Compliant.

Scenarios

This rule applies when you need to enable the SSL encryption feature for an ApsaraDB for Redis instance to improve link security. After you enable the feature, you must install SSL certificates that are issued by certificate authorities (CAs) on your application. You can use the SSL encryption feature to encrypt connections at the transport layer to increase data security and ensure data integrity.

Risk level

Default risk level: medium.

When you apply this rule, you can change the risk level based on your business requirements.

Compliance evaluation logic

  • If the SSL encryption feature is enabled for each ApsaraDB for Redis instance, the evaluation result is Compliant.
  • If the SSL encryption feature is disabled for an ApsaraDB for Redis instance, the evaluation result is Incompliant. For more information about how to remediate an incompliant configuration, see Incompliance remediation.
