We have begun the process to establish a structure for centralizing the associated permissions so we change in +one place (but apply in three). In addition, we have developed a script to make creation of new groups which are associated to the System Common (`sc-` permissionsets) +simpler. Here is the documentation for creating the [SSO Groups](https://github.e.it.census.gov/terraform/support/blob/master/docs/how-to/aws-sso/create-sso-group.md) +along with the new [script](https://github.e.it.census.gov/terraform/support/tree/master/local-app/python-tools/sso-tools/sso-create-sc-group). This will be +firmed up shortly. + +We started with the normalization of the Service Catalog permissionsets, turning them into `sc-servicecatalog-tN` for N of 1,2,3. We'll then use this new +strructure to create groups limited to specific accounts or OUs and users for use within those accounts. + ## 2026-01-07: SCP to restrict access to permitted Bedrock models only We have implemented a service control policy in lab-gov and ent-ew to restrict access to only the permitted Bedrock models. More details on the models and this change [here](https://github.e.it.census.gov/terraform/cloud-information/blob/master/aws/documentation/services/bedrock/scp.md), and Bedrock [here](https://github.e.it.census.gov/terraform/cloud-information/blob/master/aws/documentation/services/bedrock/). It is expected -this change to be applied to ent-gov shortly afterwards. +this change to be applied to ent-gov once we have completed the CRQ process. ## 2026-01-02: Stop all non-organization CloudTrail
