Operational Best Practices for Canadian Centre for Cyber Security (CCCS) Medium Cloud Control Profile
Conformance packs provide a general-purpose compliance framework designed to enable you to create security, operational or cost-optimization governance checks using managed or custom AWS Config rules and AWS Config remediation actions. Conformance Packs, as sample templates, are not designed to fully ensure compliance with a specific governance or compliance standard. You are responsible for making your own assessment of whether your use of the Services meets applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
The following provides a sample mapping between the Canadian Centre for Cyber Security (CCCS) Medium Cloud Control Profile and AWS managed Config rules. Each Config rule applies to a specific AWS resource, and relates to one or more CCCS Medium Cloud Control Profile controls. A CCCS Medium Cloud Control Profile control can be related to multiple Config rules. Refer to the table below for more detail and guidance related to these mappings.

Details of captured data are seen within AWS CloudTrail Record Contents. | |
| CCCS-fPBMM-AC-2(1) | AC-2(1) Account Management | Automated System Account Management | Ensure the Instance Metadata Service Version 2 (IMDSv2) method is enabled to help protect access and control of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instance metadata. The IMDSv2 method uses session-based controls. With IMDSv2, controls can be implemented to restrict changes to instance metadata. | |
| CCCS-fPBMM-AC-2(1) | AC-2(1) Account Management | Automated System Account Management | If a task definition has elevated privileges it is because the customer has specifically opted-in to those configurations. This control checks for unexpected privilege escalation when a task definition has host networking enabled but the customer has not opted-in to elevated privileges. | |
| CCCS-fPBMM-AC-2(1) | AC-2(1) Account Management | Automated System Account Management | The access permissions and authorizations can be managed and incorporated with the principles of least privilege and separation of duties, by enabling Kerberos for Amazon EMR clusters. In Kerberos, the services and the users that need to authenticate are known as principals. The principals exist within a Kerberos realm. Within the realm, a Kerberos server is known as the key distribution center (KDC). It provides a means for the principals to authenticate. The KDC authenticates by issuing tickets for authentication. The KDC maintains a database of the principals within its realm, their passwords, and other administrative information about each principal. | |
| CCCS-fPBMM-AC-2(1) | AC-2(1) Account Management | Automated System Account Management | AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) can help you incorporate the principles of least privilege and separation of duties with access permissions and authorizations, restricting policies from containing blocked actions on all AWS Key Management Service keys. Having more privileges than needed to complete a task may violate the principle of least privilege and separation of duties. This rule allows you to set the blockedActionsPatterns parameter. (AWS Foundational Security Best Practices value: kms:Decrypt, kms:ReEncryptFrom). The actual values should reflect your organization's policies | |
| CCCS-fPBMM-AC-2(1) | AC-2(1) Account Management | Automated System Account Management | AWS Identity and Access Management (IAM) can help you incorporate the principles of least privilege and separation of duties with access permissions and authorizations, by ensuring that IAM groups have at least one user.
