- Set up securely: configure AWS IAM Identity Center with least-privilege access, encryption and backups where they apply.

What to consider: Security, Identity & Compliance

- Turn on multi-factor authentication for every administrator account.
- Enable audit logs and threat detection from day one; they are hard to reconstruct after an incident.
