Aws Logging Disabled

Description

Detects when AWS CloudTrail trails have logging disabled, which creates a significant security blind spot in AWS environments. CloudTrail provides vital audit logging of AWS account activity, and disabled logging could prevent detection of unauthorized actions or security incidents.

Weakness:

400 - Traceability Loss - AWS

Category: Functionality Abuse

Detection Strategy

    Enumerates all CloudTrail trails in the AWS account

    For each trail owned by the current account, checks if the IsLogging flag is set to false

    Reports a vulnerability if any CloudTrail trail has logging disabled
