S3 Bucket Has ACLs Enabled

Overview

Verify whether ACLs are enabled for S3 buckets. S3 ACLs represent an outdated form of access control that predates IAM. Presently, IAM and bucket policies are the recommended approaches. Confirm that S3 ACLs are deactivated (BucketOwnerEnforced). Employ IAM policies and bucket policies for access management purposes.
