The Stax Organization Rules Bundle is a collection of Rules that organizations can customize and manage based on their own specific AWS environment needs. In total, there are over 200 Rules in our Catalog that you can add to your Organization Rules Bundle. Unlike other preconfigured Rule Bundles provided by Stax, Rules in the Organization Rules Bundle can be disabled as well as deleted.

This article covers the different ways to delete rules from the Organization Rules Bundle.
