I need an AWS access key to allow a program, script, or developer to have programmatic access to the resources on my AWS account. How do I create a new access key?

A key pair is used to control login access to EC2 instances. Currently this resource requires an existing user-supplied key pair. This key pair's public key will be registered with AWS to allow logging-in to EC2 instances. When importing an existing key pair the public key material may be in any format supported by AWS.

If you want even more protection, you can force Windows to create a restore point automatically every time you start your PC.

An access key grants programmatic access to your resources. This means that the access key should be guarded as carefully as the AWS account root user sign-in credentials.

  1. Sep 24, 2018  By default, AWS does not generate an access key for new accounts. Use Temporary Security Credentials (IAM Roles) Instead of Long-Term Access Keys In many scenarios, you don't need a long-term access key that never expires (as you have with an IAM user). Instead, you can create IAM roles and generate temporary security credentials.
  2. Jul 12, 2019 To create an access key for the AWS root user, you will first have to log in to the AWS system using the root user credentials. If you typically use an administrative IAM user as is best practice.
  3. If your goal is to generate IAM access keys for a new user, login to the AWS console, go to IAM, go to users, Add User, click 'Programmatic access', then Set permissions for the user and finish by creating the user. On the next screen will be the access keys.

It's a best practice to do the following:

  1. Create an IAM user and then define that user's permissions as narrowly as possible.
  2. Create the access key under that IAM user.
