Cloud security at AWS is the highest priority. Amazon SageMaker Studio offers various mechanisms to protect your data and code using integration with AWS security services like AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM), AWS Key Management Service (AWS KMS), or network isolation with Amazon Virtual Private Cloud (Amazon VPC).
Customers in highly regulated industries, like financial services, can set up Studio in VPC only mode to enable network isolation and disable internet access from Studio notebooks. You can use IAM integration with Studio to control which users have access to resources like Studio notebooks, the Studio IDE, or Amazon SageMaker training jobs.
A popular use case is to restrict access to the Studio IDE to only users from inside a specified network CIDR range or a designated VPC. You can achieve this by implementing IAM identity-based SageMaker policies and attaching those policies to the IAM users or groups that require those permissions. However, the SageMaker domain must be configured with IAM authentication mode, because the IAM identity-based policies aren’t supported in AWS Single Sign-On (SSO) authentication mode.
Many customers use AWS SSO to enable centralized workforce identity control and provide a consistent user sign-in experience. This post shows how to implement this use case while keeping AWS SSO ca …
