VPC Endpoints (Gateway + PrivateLink)
Free gateway endpoints for S3 and DynamoDB, interface endpoints for everything else, and a security group that opens 443 to the VPC rather than the world. Interface endpoints are listed explicitly because each bills per hour per availability zone.
Verification

Documentation
aws-vpc-endpoints
Gateway endpoints for S3 and DynamoDB, interface endpoints (PrivateLink) for
everything else, and a security group that opens 443 to the VPC rather than to
the world. Works with Terraform and OpenTofu (>= 1.6), AWS provider
>= 6.0, < 7.0.
Secure defaults:
- The endpoint security group allows 443 from the VPC CIDR only, not
0.0.0.0/0, and you can narrow it further or pass your own group per endpoint - Private DNS on by default, so existing SDK calls use the endpoint without a code change
- Gateway endpoints are validated to the only two services that support them, so a typo fails at plan rather than creating nothing useful
Cost is why the interface list is explicit: a gateway endpoint is free, an interface endpoint bills per hour per availability zone. A module that defaulted a dozen of them on would be an expensive surprise.
Verification
Static validation runs tofu fmt, init, validate, tflint and checkov.
This module has not yet had a live test, so it is published as statically
validated with its live test pending and does not carry the live-tested mark.

Related modules
aws-vpc-lattice
auth_type defaults to NONE, so any client in any associated VPC can call any service with no identity and no policy - and associating one more VPC silently grants everything in it. Defaults to AWS_IAM and requires per-VPC security groups.
aws-vpc-peering
A VPC peering between two VPCs in one account and region, accepted in the same apply, with DNS resolution across it and routes written in every listed route table on both sides for every CIDR of the other. A default route through a peering is refused (CKV2_AWS_44). Peering is not transitive; past a handful of VPCs the transit gateway is the product.
aws-client-vpn
Remote-access VPN endpoint with certificate or SAML authentication, split tunnelling, per-group authorization rules and connection logging. There is no allow-all shortcut: an endpoint with no rule reaches nothing.
aws-cloud-map
Private DNS, public DNS or API-only namespaces and the services registered in them. Documents the health-check trap: a private namespace gets a custom check that something else must update, and one nobody updates reports healthy forever.
aws-cloud-wan
A global network whose segments, routing and attachment placement live in one policy document rather than per-region route tables. The policy VERSION is executed as a second step, so a change cannot report success while the network still runs the previous one.
aws-direct-connect
Gateway, connections, virtual interfaces and associations. A private circuit is a private path, not a private conversation: traffic crosses it in clear text unless MACsec is on, and should_encrypt quietly falls back to clear text.
