Check ID
BEDROCK_BATCH_JOB_NO_VPC

What this check finds

A Bedrock batch inference job was submitted without a VPC configuration. Without VPC isolation, data processed by the batch job travels over the public AWS network and is not restricted to your private network perimeter.

Passing looks like: Bedrock batch job runs inside VPC.

How to fix it

Submit batch inference jobs with a vpcConfig specifying private subnets and a security group. Add --vpc-config SubnetIds=...,SecurityGroupIds=... to the CreateModelInvocationJob call.

Checked on every scan

KloudLytics runs this check each time it scans a connected AWS account, through a read-only role, and lists every affected resource with its region. On Pro and Business a fix is written for the specific resource rather than the general case above. The exact access it needs
