AWS Elastic Beanstalk adds controls for default security group management

AWS Elastic Beanstalk has introduced a new feature that allows customers more flexibility in managing security groups for application deployments.

• Customers can now use custom security groups instead of default security groups
• Applies to both new and existing Elastic Beanstalk environments
• Covers EC2 instances and load balancers in load-balanced environments
• Previously, Elastic Beanstalk automatically added default security groups
• Available in all AWS Commercial Regions and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions

This update provides enhanced network access control and simplifies security management for Elastic Beanstalk users by allowing more customized security configurations.
