-**Warning:** This scenario requires IAM users with programmatic access and long-term credentials, which presents a security risk. To help mitigate this risk, we recommend that you provide these users with only the permissions they require to perform the task and that you remove these users after the AWS migration is completed. Access keys can be updated if necessary.
