# EMR Security Configuration

EMR Security Configuration in AWS defines the security settings applied to an Amazon EMR cluster. It allows you to specify encryption options for data at rest and in transit, Kerberos authentication, and other security-related controls. This configuration ensures that sensitive data processed by EMR is protected according to compliance and organizational requirements.
