The best way to automatically and proactively enforce the security control that new AWS S3 buckets must be private and encrypted at rest is with a Sentinel policy, which runs before every apply. Sentinel is a policy as code framework that allows you to define and enforce logic-based policies for your infrastructure. Terraform Cloud supports Sentinel policies for all paid tiers, and can run them before any terraform plan or terraform apply operation. You can write a Sentinel policy that checks the configuration of the S3 buckets and ensures that they have the proper settings for privacy and encryption, and then assign the policy to your Terraform Cloud organization or workspace. This way, Terraform Cloud will prevent any changes that violate the policy from being applied. References = [Sentinel Policy Framework], [Manage Policies in Terraform Cloud], [Write and Test Sentinel Policies for Terraform]

The provider for the aws_vpc resource is aws, as the resource type begins with aws_, which denotes that it is managed by the AWS provider.

In Terraform, when you use the count meta-argument, you can reference individual instances using an index. The indexing starts at 0, so to reference the "name" value of the second instance, you would use aws_instance.web[1].name. This syntax allows you to access the properties of specific instances in a list generated by the count argument.
