Conformance packs provide a general-purpose compliance framework designed to enable you to create security, operational or cost-optimization governance checks using managed or custom AWS Config rules and AWS Config remediation actions. Conformance Packs, as sample templates, are not designed to fully ensure compliance with a specific governance or compliance standard. You are responsible for making your own assessment of whether your use of the Services meets applicable legal and regulatory requirements.

The following provides a sample mapping between the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security (CCCS) Medium Cloud Control Profile and AWS managed Config rules. Each Config rule applies to a specific AWS resource, and relates to one or more CCCS Medium Cloud Control Profile controls. A CCCS Medium Cloud Control Profile control can be related to multiple Config rules. Refer to the table below for more detail and guidance related to these mappings.
