Enable and configure Amazon Macie via AWS CLI/Terraform to discover, classify, and protect sensitive data (PII, financial data, credentials) in S3 using ML and pattern matching, including discovery jobs, custom data identifiers, allow lists, and EventBridge-based remediation. Use when setting up S3 data classification, cloud DLP, or auditing S3 for unprotected sensitive data.

# Implementing AWS Macie for Data Classification

## Overview

Amazon Macie is a fully managed data security and privacy service that uses machine learning and pattern matching to discover and protect sensitive data in Amazon S3. Macie automatically evaluates your S3 bucket inventory on a daily basis and identifies objects containing PII, financial information, credentials, and other sensitive data types. It provides two discovery approaches: automated sensitive data discovery for broad visibility and targeted discovery jobs for deep analysis.
