Stax Team

Stax currently configures your AWS Accounts to automatically disable unused IAM credentials after 90 days to comply with a previous version of the CIS AWS Foundation Benchmark.

To meet newer versions of the CIS AWS Foundation Benchmark and other frameworks Stax will be lowering the current 90 days to 45 days. You can read more about this at IAM Control and the docs.

This change will be automatically deployed to all AWS Accounts on the 17th September 2025.

If you have any questions or concerns in advance of this, please contact your Customer Success Manager or raise a support case.
