## Impact

AWS CodeBuild is a fully managed build service in the cloud, that compiles source code, runs unit tests, and produces artifacts that are ready to deploy.

We recommend enabling CodeBuild project encryption to protect sensitive information such as passwords and other credentials required to access external services during the build process, from security breaches.

NOTE: Build artifacts, such as a cache, logs, exported raw test report data files, and build results are encrypted by default using CMKs for Amazon S3 that are managed by the AWS Key Management Service.

If you do not want to use these CMKs, you must create and configure a customer-managed CMK.

## How to Fix

## \[source,go]

Resources: CodeBuildProject: Type: AWS::CodeBuild::Project Properties: ... Artifacts: ... Type: S3

* EncryptionDisabled: True
* EncryptionDisabled: False

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/appsec-rules/iac-security/storage/appsec-aws-78.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
