These are NOT your AWS secret keys.

SECRET_KEY
http://flask.pocoo.org/docs/api/#flask.Flask.secret_key

Set this to a complex random value when you want to use the secure cookie for instance.

This is just some random string that is used to sign cookies for user sessions.

SECURITY_PASSWORD_SALT
https://pythonhosted.org/Flask-Security/configuration.html

Specifies the HMAC salt. This is only used if the password hash type is set to something other than plain text. Defaults to None.

This is another random string that is used to salt passwords before they are hashed and placed into the database.

The output from a random password generator should be sufficient for both of these fields.
