Database

Aws Cluster Logs Disabled

Description

Identifies Amazon RDS database clusters that have CloudWatch logs export disabled. When CloudWatch logging is not enabled, there is no audit trail of database activity, making it difficult to monitor for security events, compliance violations, and performance issues.

Weakness:

400 - Traceability Loss - AWS

Category: Functionality Abuse

Detection Strategy

    • Retrieves all RDS database clusters in the specified AWS region

    • Examines the 'EnabledCloudwatchLogsExports' configuration for each cluster

    • Reports a vulnerability if the EnabledCloudwatchLogsExports setting is empty or missing
