Triage and Remediation

Remediation

Sure, here are the step-by-step instructions to remediate the Console Sign-in Failures Alarm for AWS:

  1. Log in to your AWS Management Console.
  2. Navigate to the CloudWatch service.
  3. Click on “Alarms” in the left-hand menu.
  4. Locate the Console Sign-in Failures Alarm that you want to remediate and click on it.
  5. Click on the “Actions” dropdown menu and select “Disable Alarm”.
  6. Confirm that you want to disable the alarm by clicking “Yes, Disable”.
  7. Once the alarm is disabled, you can investigate the cause of the sign-in failures and take appropriate action to remediate the issue.

Note: Disabling the alarm will stop notifications from being sent, but it will not fix the underlying issue causing the sign-in failures. You will need to investigate and address the root cause of the issue to prevent future failures.
