Context
The recently added check
iam_root_credentials_management_enabled
uses theListOrganizationsFeatures
API to verify if centralized root credentials management is enabled. However, this API is restricted to the management account or delegated administrators. AWS Support confirmed that member accounts cannot access this information, resulting in theAccountNotManagementOrDelegatedAdministratorException
error.Description
The check now skips findings for member accounts, as they are unable to retrieve the required data due to API restrictions. This ensures accurate results without unnecessary findings for member accounts.
