AWS HealthOmics now supports IAM session policies

News



AWS HealthOmics now supports IAM session policies, enabling dynamic permission scoping for individual runs without managing multiple IAM roles.

  • Session policies limit maximum permissions for a run without modifying the underlying service role
  • Effective permissions are the intersection of identity-based and session policies
  • Multi-tenant applications can restrict run access to specific tenant S3 buckets
  • Grant temporary access to specific S3 objects on a per-run basis
  • Available in all AWS Regions where HealthOmics operates

IAM session policies simplify permission management for healthcare and life sciences bioinformatics workflows.
