Private Access to the AWS Management Console is generally available

Today, AWS announces the general availability of AWS Management Console Private Access. Private Access is a new security feature that allows customers to limit access to the AWS Management Console from their Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) or connected networks to a set of trusted AWS accounts and organizations. AWS Management Console Private Access is built on VPC Endpoints, which uses AWS PrivateLink to establish a private connection between a customer VPC and the AWS Management Console. Customers can designate which networks are allowed to access their accounts and AWS Organizations from the AWS Management Console. It also denies attempts to access any other AWS accounts in the AWS Management Console from their network. Private Access is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (Ohio), US East (N. Virginia), US West (Oregon), Europe (Ireland), and Asia Pacific (Singapore). For information about Private Access, see the [AWS Management Console User Guide](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/awsconsolehelpdocs/latest/gsg/console-private-access.html).
