aws_cloudhsm AWS CloudHSM protect minimal T1552 Unsecured Credentials
Comments
This control's protection is specific to a minority of this technique's sub-techniques and procedure examples resulting in a Minimal Coverage score and consequently an overall score of Minimal.

aws_cloudhsm AWS CloudHSM protect partial T1552.001 Credentials In Files
Comments
This service provides a more secure alternative to storing encryption keys in the file system. As a result of this service only supporting cryptographic keys and not other types of credentials, the coverage score is assessed as Partial resulting in an overall Partial score.
