Benchmark: BP02 Enforce encryption at rest

Description

You should enforce the use of encryption for data at rest. Encryption maintains the confidentiality of sensitive data in the event of unauthorized access or accidental disclosure. Private data should be encrypted by default when at rest. Encryption helps maintain confidentiality of the data and provides an additional layer of protection against intentional or inadvertent data disclosure or exfiltration. Data that is encrypted cannot be read or accessed without first unencrypting the data. Any data stored unencrypted should be inventoried and controlled.

Usage

Install the mod:

mkdir dashboards
cd dashboards
powerpipe mod init
powerpipe mod install github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-aws-well-architected

Start the Powerpipe server:

steampipe service start
powerpipe server

Open http://localhost:9033 in your browser and select BP02 Enforce encryption at rest.

Run this benchmark in your terminal:

powerpipe benchmark run aws_well_architected.benchmark.well_architected_framework_sec08_bp02

Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:

powerpipe benchmark run aws_well_architected.benchmark.well_architected_framework_sec08_bp02 --share
