Update AWS Account Name in Lacework Console

After integrating your AWS accounts, it is possible that your account(s) list Account ID information but not a name or description, because the account was not configured with an AWS account alias.

Lacework uses the account alias value to display the AWS account name information.

To create or customize this value, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your AWS environment and navigate to Identity and Access Management (IAM).
2. If the AWS Account ID is displayed, but not an alias, update this value, click Customize to the right of your sign-in link.
3. Create your Account Alias by entering the desired value in the text box.
4. This updates your AWS Account Alias, creates a new friendly sign-in link destination, and populates next to your account ID as the account name in the Lacework Console.

This procedure updates the display name to include the AWS Account Alias in addition to the AWS Account ID. The change is also reflected in the Lacework Console after the next compliance report run.
