A company recently migrated a web application from an on-premises data center to the AWS Cloud. The web application infrastructure consists of an Amazon CloudFront distribution that routes to an Application Load Balancer (ALB), with Amazon Elastic Container Service (Amazon ECS) to process requests. A recent security audit revealed that the web application is accessible by using both CloudFront and ALB endpoints. However, the company requires that the web application must be accessible only by using the CloudFront endpoint. Which solution will meet this requirement with the LEAST amount of effort?
