What's new?

We've updated the runtime of the lambda functions to Node 18. You wouldn't notice any difference and things will continue to work smoothly and consistently as before.
Resource's metadata will now also include createdBy details in Turbot CMDB.
Users can now perform quick actions on resources to remediate cloud configuration issues or skip Turbot alarms for issues that they want to come back to later. To get started, click on the Actions button, which will reveal a dropdown menu with available actions, and select one. See Quick Actions for more information.
README.md file is now available for users to check details about the resource types and service permissions that the mod covers.
Users can now create their own custom checks against resource attributes in the Approved control using the Approved > Custom policy. These custom checks would be a part of the evaluation of the Approved control. Custom messages can also be added which are then displayed in the control details table. See Custom Checks for more information.

Bug fixes

Lambda functions for controls/actions would sometimes error out due to Turbot adding the user agent field incorrectly for repeated lambda runs. This is now fixed.
We've improved the process of deleting resources from Turbot if their CMDB policy was set to Enforce: Disabled. The CMDB controls will now not look to resolve credentials via Turbot's IAM role while deleting resources from Turbot. This will allow the CMDB controls to process resource deletions from Turbot more reliably than before.

Policy Types

Action Types

What's new?

AWS/WAF Regional/Admin and AWS/WAF Regional/Metadata now include permissions for Rule Group, Logging Configuration and Permission Policy.

Bug fixes

Controls run faster now when in the tbd and skipped states thanks to the new Guardrails Precheck feature (not to be confused with TSA PreCheck). With Guardrails Precheck, controls avoid running GraphQL input queries when in tbd and skipped, resulting in faster and lighter control runs.

Bug fixes

We've made some improvements to our real-time event handling that reduces the risk of creating resources in CMDB with malformed AKAs. There's no noticeable difference, but things should run more reliably now.

What's new?

Discovery controls now have their own control category, CMDB > Discovery, to allow for easier filtering separately from other CMDB controls.
We've renamed the service's default regions policy from Regions [Default] to Regions to be consistent with our other regions policies.

Bug fixes

In various Active controls, we were outputting log messages that did not properly show how many days were left until we'd delete the inactive resources (we were still deleting them after the correct number of days). These log messages have been fixed and now contain the correct number of days.

Bug fixes

Updated various resource configurations to provide better compatibility with AWS China regions.

What's new?

All resource Router actions now run even if Guardrails is outside of its allowed change window. This allows Guardrails to maintain an up-to-date CMDB by handling resource updates at all times. Note that this only affects Guardrails' ability to process resources changes that were made in the cloud provider - enforcement actions are still disabled outside of the change window.

What's new?

Updated AWS > WAF Regional > Regions policy default value to now include ap-east-1, me-south-1, us-gov-west-1`.

Bug fixes

Links to documentation in the descriptions for several controls and policies were broken. These links have now been fixed.
