Control Tower Region deny helps you comply with business policies and regulatory requirements, for example, AWS customers in Germany can deny access to AWS services in regions outside of the Frankfurt region. You can select which regions you would like to restrict our end users from deploying resources to during the Control Tower setup process or in the Landing zone settings page for already established environments. Region deny is available when you update your AWS Control Tower landing zone version. To learn more about Region deny, including which AWS services are exempt, see documentation on Guardrail Reference.
