On our website you will find a two-part blog published on the protection of sensitive data, such as Personally Identifiable Information (PII), in the cloud. Much of the guidance in the second post centred on activity linked to Amazon Simple Storage Service (S3), and it briefly touched on the use of S3 Object Lambda to automatically transform S3 data as it’s retrieved through a request.
S3 Object Lambda is a feature that links objects in an S3 Bucket with a Lambda Function.
Using S3 Object Lambda, we can achieve the desired outcome while avoiding these downsides: Team B requests for an object S3 Object Lambda passes the requested object to a Lambda Function The Function identifies the country and prefixes the phone number with the appropriate country code S3 Object Lambda returns the modified object to Team B
In this architecture, the marketing partner requests data from an S3 Object Lambda endpoint instead of directly from an S3 bucket.
