Existing backup plans and configurations continue to work with no changes required if you are using default AWS Backup managed policies. For details on the required permissions for custom policies, see the AWS Backup documentation.

This capability is available in all AWS commercial and AWS GovCloud (US) Regions. To get started, visit the AWS Backup console.
