Automating AWS Compliance with InSpec
- 1. Automating Compliance with InSpec Sydney AWS Security Meetup August 10, 2017
- 2. Matt Ray Manager, Solutions Architect – APJ Chef Software [email protected] @mattray
- 6. SSH Control "SSH supports two different protocol versions.The original version, SSHv1, was subject to a number of security issues. Please use SSHv2 instead to avoid these."
- 7. How will I verify this?
- 8. Whip up a one-liner! grep "^Protocol" /etc/ssh/sshd_config | sed 's/Protocol //'
- 9. Apache Server Information Leakage • Description This Directive Controls wheather Server response field is sent back to clients includes a description of Generic OSType of the Server. This allows attackers to identify web servers details greatly and increases the efficiency of any attack,as security vulnerabilities are dependent upon specific software versions. • How toTest In order to test for ServerToken configuration, one should check the Apache configuration file. • Misconfiguration ServerTokens Full • Remediation Configure the ServerTokens directive in the Apache configuration to value of Prod or ProductOnly.This tells Apache to only return "Apache" in the Server header, returned on every page request. ServerTokens Prod or ServerTokens ProductOnly https://www.owasp.org/index.php/SCG_WS_Apache
- 10. More grep and sed! grep "^ServerTokens" /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf | sed 's/ServerTokens //'
- 18. Two-thirds of organizations did not adequately test the security of all in-scope systems
- 19. Key Trends • While individual rule compliance is up, testing of security systems is down • Sustainability is low. Fewer than a third of companies were found to be still fully compliant less than a year after successful validation.
- 21. Shell Scripts grep "^Protocol" /etc/ssh/sshd_config | sed 's/Protocol //' grep "^ServerTokens" /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf | sed 's/ServerTokens //'
- 22. Infrastructure Code package 'httpd' do action :install end service 'httpd' do action [ :start, :enable ] end
