SNS Data Protection Policy

Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) is a fully managed messaging service for both application-to-application (A2A) and application-to-person (A2P) communication. SNS topics allow you to fan out messages to a large number of subscribers, including distributed systems, and serverless applications. The SNS Data Protection Policy provides a mechanism to ensure that the data transmitted through SNS is compliant with your organisational and regulatory requirements. This policy is used to define and enforce encryption, data retention, and access control practices on SNS topics. For more details, you can refer to the official AWS SNS Data Protection documentation.
