Egress Security Score Calculation

  • Egress Score = (Sum of all scores of individual non-ignored VPC or VNets / Total number of non-ignored VPCs) * 100

  • 0 is the lowest score for a VPC/VNet

  • 1 is the highest score for a VPC/VNet

  • Gateway subnets are excluded

  • In AWS, focus on routes that have a next hop of "nat-*".
