S3 Block Public Access is a feature in #Amazon S3 that helps prevent public access to #S3 buckets and objects. Enabling this feature provides an added layer of security to protect your data from accidental or intentional exposure. S3 Block Public Access includes settings for blocking public access at the account or bucket level, and can be configured using the #AWS Management Console, CLI, or #API. By default, S3 Block Public Access is disabled, so it’s important to enable this setting to protect your S3 data.

terraform {
  source = "terraform-aws-modules/s3-bucket/aws"

include {
  path = find_in_parent_folders()

inputs = {
  bucket_name = "s3-bucket"
  block_public_acls = true
  block_public_policy = true
  ignore_public_acls = true
  restrict_public_buckets = true
}

After paste this code in the file. Just save and open the terminal and locate to the s3 bucket folder which we have created enter the first command terragrunt init for Initializing and after Initialization, enter the second command terragrunt plan when the plan executed successfully ,enter the third command terragrunt apply after apply configuration would be done in your aws s3 console.
