Por Que e Quando Desempenhar Esta Tarefa
Using a dedicated key enhances security by verifying that applicative credentials are encrypted and securely retrieved at runtime, without being exposed in plain text. This step is optional and only necessary if you plan to use applicative credentials during discovery. To configure the MID Server to support secure credential handling during SSM Agent discovery, set the mid.discovery.aws_ssm.kms_key_name property to the name of the AWS KMS key. Then, set the mid.discovery.aws_ssm.kms_key_region property to the region where the key is located.
