Hello!

Thank you for your question regarding AWS configuration on Verdin boards. While the documentation you referenced pertains to legacy Windows CE implementations, it’s important to note that this approach is outdated and not recommended for current systems.

For modern embedded Linux systems, including those running on Toradex hardware with Torizon, securely managing AWS credentials is crucial. Here are some general best practices you can follow:

  1. Environment Variables: Store AWS credentials in environment variables rather than hardcoding them into your application. This approach keeps sensitive information separate from your codebase.

  2. AWS IAM Roles: If your application is running on AWS infrastructure, consider using IAM roles to manage permissions securely without needing to store credentials on the device.

  3. Secrets Management: Utilize a secrets management tool or service to store and access credentials securely. This can include AWS Secrets Manager or other third-party solutions.

  4. Configuration Files: If you must use configuration files, ensure they are not included in version control and are stored securely on the device.
