CIS Control 2.10: Ensure Resource Access via Tag-based Policies (Manual)
Profile Applicability
- Level 2
Description
For optimal granularity in EC2 access, configuring IAM policies via tags proves highly effective. This involves editing the policy text editor to specify access permissions based on specific tags.
Rationale
Implementing IAM policies based on tags in EC2 enables administrators to finely tailor access control, granting permissions dynamically according to resource attributes. This approach enhances security and scalability by aligning access rights with specific resource requirements while minimizing manual intervention.
Audit Procedure
Via AWS CLI
```bash
Check IAM policies for tag-based conditions
aws iam list-policies --scope Local
aws iam get-policy-version
--policy-arn <POLICY_ARN>
--version-id <VERSION_ID> | grep -i "aws:ResourceTag"
```
Remediation
Review existing IAM policies associated with EC2 resources to ensure they include tag-based conditions. Modify policies to incorporate tag-based conditions for granular access control.
