🔐 AWS CodeBuild Adds IAM Condition Keys for Fine-Grained Security 🚀

#aws #codebuild #devops #cicd

AWS just dropped a cool update: CodeBuild now supports new IAM condition keys for tighter control over your build projects. 🎯

Why does this matter? You can now enforce fine-grained security policies on:

✅ VPC settings (codebuild:vpcConfig.vpcId)
✅ Buildspec paths (codebuild:source.buildspec)
✅ Compute types (codebuild:computeConfiguration.instanceType), and more...

🧠 Real-World Example:

Let’s say your org wants to:

Restrict builds to a specific VPC
Enforce lightweight compute types to save cost
Ensure developers can only use approved buildspec files

With the new condition keys, your IAM policy can enforce this:

"Condition": {
  "StringEquals": {
    "codebuild:vpcConfig.vpcId": "vpc-0123456789abcdef0",
    "codebuild:computeConfiguration.instanceType": "BUILD_GENERAL1_SMALL",
    "codebuild:source.buildspec": "codebuild/buildspecs/approved-buildspec.yml"
  }
}
