This is a part of the Garrison security project. This agent provides various AWS Lambda compliance checks.

Checks Provided

Function Name	Description
check_dead_letter	Alerts if a Lambda function has no dead letter config.
check_encryption_at_rest	Alerts if a Lambda function is not using a customer master key (AWS KMS CMK) for encryption at rest.
check_runtime_deprecations	Alerts if a Lambda function is using a deprecated runtime.

Installation & Example

Docker Hub - https://hub.docker.com/r/forward3d/garrison-agent-aws-lambda/

docker run --rm -e "GARRISON_URL=https://garrison.internal.acme.com" forward3d/garrison-agent-aws-lambda check_runtime_deprecations

Agent Specific Configuration

These are additional specific configuration options for this agent. Global agent configurations still apply.

Environmental Variable	Default	Expects
GARRISON_AWS_REGIONS	all [1]	Comma Separated Strings eg. eu-west-1,us-west-2

1. AWS Regions as returned by the AWS SDK at runtime for Lambda.

AWS Authentication

As this requires access to the AWS API you will need this IAM policy as a minimum for it to operate correctly.

{
    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Action": [
              "lambda:ListFunctions"
            ],
            "Resource": "*",
            "Effect": "Allow"
        }
    ]
}

We recommend using EC2/ECS Task roles so that you don't need to send credentials into the container, however if you can't use those or want to send in specific Access Keys and Secret keys, please see the AWS Documentation as to how you do that.

Cross-Account Authentication (STS AssumeRole)

If you run Garrison agents in one account, and want to reach into other AWS accounts you need to send in extra environmental variables to support that.

Environmental Variable	Value
AWS_ACCOUNT_ID	Not used as part of authentication, but to override the tag set on any alerts
AWS_ASSUME_ROLE_CREDENTIALS_ARN	Arn of the role (in the other account) you wish to assume
