RDS Encryption questions

0

A customer sent me the questions below:

As part of out vendor approval with a major bank, we detailed that we encrypt the DB using RDS encryptions. They asked us the following questions, and we couldn't find a specific answer in the AWS documentation. Can you please help?

  1. What are the Enumeration protocol and supported versions
  2. What is the Certificate key size (i.e: RSA 2048) ----- Adir: AES-256
  3. Which Cipher suites are supported?

Do we have this information to provide him?

The AWS RDS platform uses the same encryption at rest technology that EBS utilizes to encrypt full volumes. We utilize AES-256 encryption, detailed here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/kms/latest/developerguide/services-rds.html

With regards specifically to Postgres RDS, most of your questions related to encryption in transit are here: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/UserGuide/CHAP_PostgreSQL.html#PostgreSQL.Concepts.General.SSL
