Multi-account AWS (or multi-subscription Azure / multi-project GCP) is the norm. Production in one account, staging in another, security tooling in a third, sometimes dozens of accounts across business units.
Multi-account AWS (or multi-subscription Azure / multi-project GCP) is the norm. Production in one account, staging in another, security tooling in a third, sometimes dozens of accounts across business units. Each cross-account boundary is a potential attack surface — and when misconfigured, a path from one compromised account to many.
Why multi-account
- Blast-radius limitation — a compromised prod account shouldn’t affect staging
- Compliance — isolate regulated workloads
- Billing separation by team/product
- Quota isolation
- Principle of least privilege across teams
