Description​

AWS EC2 Network ACL is a security layer for Amazon Virtual Private Clouds (VPCs) that controls inbound and outbound traffic at the subnet level. It acts as a firewall, evaluating network traffic against user-defined rules. Network ACLs filter packets based on protocol, port, and source/destination IP addresses, providing an additional line of defense for EC2 instances within VPCs.
