Error: AWS NACL allows ingress from 0.0.0.0/0 to port 22

AWS NACL allows ingress from 0.0.0.0/0 to port 22

Description

Network Access Control List (NACL) is stateless and provides filtering of ingress/egress network traffic to AWS resources. We recommend that NACLs do not allow unrestricted ingress access to port 22. Removing unfettered connectivity to remote console services, such as SSH, reduces a server's exposure to risk.
