Cloudfront Origin Access Control

Cloudfront Origin Access Control is a feature in Amazon CloudFront, a fast content delivery network (CDN) service that securely delivers data, videos, applications, and APIs to customers globally. Origin Access Control allows you to restrict access to your CloudFront distribution, ensuring that only CloudFront can access the files in your Amazon S3 bucket, thereby enhancing security and reducing the risk of exposing sensitive data to the public internet. To learn more about how to configure and utilise this feature, you can refer to the official AWS documentation.
