Amazon Quick adds deny by default for custom permissions

Amazon Quick custom permissions now include deny by default, a governance setting that automatically restricts new AI capabilities before they reach users. Previously, new AI capabilities were available to all users on release, requiring administrators to react after the fact. With deny by default, administrators restrict the AI capability category in a custom permissions profile and assign it to users, roles, or the entire account. Quick then denies any new AI capability at launch for those users. Restricting a category also restricts existing capabilities in it. Administrators explicitly allow each capability when ready. The restriction applies only to the profile you configure. Configure deny by default in Manage account in Amazon Quick or through the AWS CLI. To learn more, see Custom permissions deny by default. Deny by default is available in all AWS Regions where Amazon Quick is available.

AWS IAM now provides role manager to set up IAM roles automatically

Today, AWS announces the general availability of role manager, a capability in AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) that automatically sets up the IAM roles your AWS services need. When you set up a supported service in the console, role manager creates a default role on your behalf, or reuses one that already exists in your account if it already matches the required permissions. You can enable or disable role manager at any time, as well as inspect the AWS-managed templates that role manager deploys on your behalf.
Role manager supports 6 AWS service consoles at launch, including AWS Lambda and Amazon EventBridge. For example, when you create an AWS Lambda function, role manager applies the AWS-managed template for that workflow. Roles created via role manager appear in the IAM console as standard IAM roles that you fully control, and you can identify the ones role manager created. When you are ready to tighten permissions, you can disable role manager and use IAM Access Analyzer to refine each role to only the permissions it needs.
Role manager is available in all AWS Regions, except the AWS GovCloud (US) Regions and the China Regions.
To learn more, see How AWS IAM role manager rethinks the starting point for IAM roles on the AWS Security Blog, or Create roles automatically with role manager in the IAM User Guide.

AWS Global View now offers an interactive map view for AWS Regions and AWS Local Zones

Today, AWS announces the addition of an interactive map view to AWS Global View in the AWS Management Console, providing a visual way to explore AWS Global Infrastructure.
Previously, customers had to scan through a list of AWS locations in AWS Global View. With this new capability, customers can toggle between the interactive map view and the existing list view, making it easier to visualize their global AWS infrastructure footprint. 
When customers select the map view, they will see all AWS Regions and AWS Local Zones plotted on an interactive map. This capability helps customers make informed infrastructure planning decisions by visualizing already enabled AWS locations and the full range of AWS locations available to them, all in a single glance.
This capability is available across all public AWS Regions. To get started, navigate to the Regions and Zones page in AWS Global View console. For more information, see the AWS Global View documentation.
