Migrating Security Groups Across Regions or Accounts
A security group controls the traffic that is allowed to reach and leave the cloud instances (such as ECSs, containers, and databases) that it is associated with. As your business expands, for example, you need to deploy resources across regions or change accounts due to organizational structure adjustment, you may need to migrate security groups from one region to another or from one account to another. To migrate security groups efficiently, you are advised to import and export security groups or clone security groups. Table 1 describes the two migration methods.
