| Hidden Overage Trap | S3 and DynamoDB traffic routed through Managed NAT Gateways incurs $0.045/GB processing fee unnecessarily when free VPC Gateway Endpoints are not configured. | Ephemeral cloud containers and short-lived CI/CD build nodes counted against peak endpoint sensor watermarks if not properly tagged and auto-purged. |
| Primary Negotiation Lever | Attach free S3/DynamoDB VPC Gateway Endpoints immediately (cuts NAT data bill 40%–70% in 10 minutes) and bundle remaining egress into an AWS EDP addendum. | Benchmark directly against SentinelOne Singularity and Microsoft Defender P2 quotes; request 95th-percentile monthly sensor averaging for cloud workloads. |
