  message: >-
    Resources in the AWS subnet are assigned a public IP address. Resources
    should not be exposed on the public internet, but should have access limited to
    consumers required for the function of your application. Set `map_public_ip_on_launch`
    to false so that resources are not publicly-accessible.
