AWS Ansible Misconfiguration: Improper API Gateway Network Access Control

Abstract
A configuration defines a network rule with overly broad access permissions.
Explanation
Loose access configurations can expose systems and broaden an organization's attack surface. Services open to interaction with the public are typically subjected to near-continuous scanning and probing by malicious entities.

This is especially problematic when a zero-day exploit for an exposed service is discovered and published, such as Heartbleed. Attackers can actively pursue and search for unpatched and exposed systems to exploit.
