Host Internal Sites Securely With Zero Public Exposure
For high growth teams managing sensitive internal tools and portals, security and scalability are non-negotiable. Hosting internal websites—whether for documentation, dashboards, or compliance—requires an architecture that keeps content accessible only within the organization, with zero public exposure.
When done right, secure website hosting on AWS using ALB, S3, and PrivateLink offers a clean, scalable solution. It eliminates the operational overhead of traditional servers and removes the risks tied to misconfigured permissions or unmonitored public access.
Why Hosting Internal Websites Needs a Different Approach
Internal websites aren’t public facing. They serve a specific audience—product engineers, DevOps teams, compliance managers—and often expose critical data, workflows, or configuration tools. A simple mistake, like an open S3 bucket or public endpoint, can result in serious risk.
With PrivateLink, teams can ensure that access is restricted to their internal network. When combined with Amazon S3 for static hosting and ALB for encrypted routing, this setup ensures both flexibility and strict access control.
The IAMOPS Approach to Internal Hosting
At IAMOPS, we help high growth tech teams design internal hosting architectures that prioritize security, simplicity, and performance. A typical implementation involves Amazon S3 for static website content, offering a reliable and scalable storage solution without the need to manage traditional web servers.
For secure internal routing, we configure Application Load Balancer (ALB) with managed SSL certificates, enabling encrypted HTTPS traffic and eliminating the operational burden of certificate renewals. To ensure complete network isolation, we integrate AWS PrivateLink to restrict access exclusively to internal users, eliminating any exposure to the public internet.
Teams working remotely can access these resources through VPNs or AWS Direct Connect, enabling secure, low-latency communication across environments. As a DevOps as a Service provider, IAMOPS automates these configurations using Infrastructure as Code, ensuring they are consistent, replicable, and compliant with internal standards.
