Landing Zones with AWS Control Tower
Stand up a secure multi-account baseline with guardrails built in.
Why a Landing Zone
Spinning up dozens of accounts by hand leads to inconsistent, insecure setups. A landing zone is a well-architected, multi-account environment with security and governance built in from day one.
AWS Control Tower automates creating and governing a landing zone, so every account starts from the same secure baseline.
What Control Tower Provides
Control Tower orchestrates several services into one governed environment:
- AWS Organizations for the account structure.
- IAM Identity Center for sign-in.
- CloudTrail and Config for logging and compliance.
It wires these together with sensible defaults automatically.
