Just revised a set of developer policies today. Most systems/users will only need a couple of permissions to leverage parameter store. And if you take the time to dig into the IAM permissions, it's quite impressive how granular you can get. The policy I built today, for example, granted SSM:GetParameter* for parameters in the '/dev' or '/staging' path hierarchy. You won't find this fully documented at the moment, but you can separately manage encryption/decryption of secrets using conditions and kms:EncryptionContext, e.g., "Condition": {
"StringLike: {
"kms:EncryptionContext:PARAMETER_ARN": "arn:aws:ssm:<region>:<acct#>:parameter/dev*"
}
} One point I will note in relation to other secret management schemes is that Parameter Store seems to use CMKs directly to encrypt parameters rather than relying on data keys and envelope encryption. |
