Control: 8 Neptune DB clusters should be configured to copy tags to snapshots

Description

This control checks if a Neptune DB cluster is configured to copy all tags to snapshots when the snapshots are created. The control fails if a Neptune DB cluster isn't configured to copy tags to snapshots.

Identification and inventory of your IT assets is a crucial aspect of governance and security. You should tag snapshots in the same way as their parent Amazon RDS database clusters. Copying tags ensures that the metadata for the DB snapshots matches that of the parent database clusters, and that access policies for the DB snapshot also match those of the parent DB instance.

Remediation

To copy tags to snapshots for Neptune DB clusters, see Copying tags in Neptune in the Neptune User Guide.

Usage

Run the control in your terminal:

powerpipe control run aws_compliance.control.foundational_security_neptune_8

Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:

powerpipe login
powerpipe control run aws_compliance.control.foundational_security_neptune_8 --share

SQL

This control uses a named query:

neptune_db_cluster_copy_tags_to_snapshot_enabled
