Description

This control verifies if automated snapshots are enabled for an Amazon Redshift cluster.

Having backups allows for faster recovery in the event of a security incident and enhances the resilience of your systems. By default, Amazon Redshift creates periodic snapshots. This control ensures that automatic snapshots are activated.

Remediation

For guidance on configuring automatic upgrades, please refer to the Modifying a cluster section of the Amazon Redshift Management Guide.
