Amazon SES adds VPC support for API endpoints

Share

Services

Today, Amazon [Simple Email Service](https://aws.amazon.com/ses/) (SES) added support for accessing SES API endpoints through Virtual Private Cloud (VPC) endpoints. Customers use VPC endpoints to enable access to SES APIs for sending emails and managing their SES resource configuration. This release helps customers increase security in their VPCs. Previously, customers who ran their workloads in a VPC could access SES APIs by configuring an internet gateway resource in their VPC. This enabled traffic from the VPC to flow into the internet, and reach SES public API endpoints. Now, customers can use the VPC endpoints to access SES APIs without the need for an internet gateway, reducing the chances for activity in the VPC to be exposed to the internet.. SES supports VPC for SES API endpoints in all [AWS Regions](https://aws.amazon.com/about-aws/global-infrastructure/regional-product-services/) where SES is available. For more information, see the documentation for information about [setting up VPC endpoints with Amazon SES](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/ses/latest/dg/send-email-set-up-vpc-endpoints.html).
