Benchmark: 2.2.7: All non-console administrative access is encrypted using strong cryptography
Description
If non-console (including remote) administration does not use encrypted communications, administrative authorization factors (such as IDs and passwords) can be revealed to an eavesdropper. A malicious individual could use this information to access the network, become administrator, and steal data.
Usage
Install the mod:
mkdir dashboardscd dashboardspowerpipe mod initpowerpipe mod install github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-aws-compliance
Start the Powerpipe server:
steampipe service startpowerpipe server
Open http://localhost:9033 in your browser and select 2.2.7: All non-console administrative access is encrypted using strong cryptography.
Run this benchmark in your terminal:
powerpipe benchmark run aws_compliance.benchmark.pci_dss_v40_requirement_2_2_7
Snapshot and share results via Turbot Pipes:
powerpipe benchmark run aws_compliance.benchmark.pci_dss_v40_requirement_2_2_7 --share
