Windows Private key in AWS

Cloud AWS
#1

Hi Guys
I have a small doubt about creating windows machine in AWS and making the connection secure like what you do in Linux machine

AWS cloud requires you to upload and put the private key in the portal which is not secure at all any one can explain me the issue and how mitigate such security breach.

Thanks, on advance

TBH, what I know about Windows Server Security could be written on the inside of a pingpong ball. We do have a support engineer that is good with Windows, we’ll see if he chimes in. In the meantime, have you done all of the recommendations from this AWS docs page? I’m not sure if it mitigates your concerns about storing the private key, but at least it should indicate AWS’ “party line” about how to do this.
