Options

--name (string)

The name of the configuration policy. Alphanumeric characters and the following ASCII characters are permitted: -, ., !, *, / .

--description (string)

The description of the configuration policy.

--configuration-policy (tagged union structure)

An object that defines how Security Hub is configured. It includes whether Security Hub is enabled or disabled, a list of enabled security standards, a list of enabled or disabled security controls, and a list of custom parameter values for specified controls. If you provide a list of security controls that are enabled in the configuration policy, Security Hub disables all other controls (including newly released controls). If you provide a list of security controls that are disabled in the configuration policy, Security Hub enables all other controls (including newly released controls).

Note

This is a Tagged Union structure. Only one of the following top level keys can be set: SecurityHub.

SecurityHub -> (structure)

The Amazon Web Services service that the configuration policy applies to.

ServiceEnabled -> (boolean)

Indicates whether Security Hub is enabled in the policy.

EnabledStandardIdentifiers -> (list)

A list that defines which security standards are enabled in the configuration policy.

(string)

SecurityControlsConfiguration -> (structure)

An object that defines which security controls are enabled in the configuration policy. The enablement status of a control is aligned across all of the enabled standards in an account.

EnabledSecurityControlIdentifiers -> (list)

A list of security controls that are enabled in the configuration policy. Security Hub disables all other controls (including newly released controls) other than the listed controls.

(string)

DisabledSecurityControlIdentifiers -> (list)

A list of security controls that are disabled in the configuration policy. Security Hub enables all other controls (including newly released controls) other than the listed controls.

(string)

SecurityControlCustomParameters -> (list)

A list of security controls and control parameter values that are included in a configuration policy.

(structure)

A list of security controls and control parameter values that are included in a configuration policy.

SecurityControlId -> (string)

The ID of the security control.

Parameters -> (map)

An object that specifies parameter values for a control in a configuration policy.

key -> (string)

value -> (structure)

An object that provides the current value of a security control parameter and identifies whether it has been customized.

ValueType -> (string)

Identifies whether a control parameter uses a custom user-defined value or subscribes to the default Security Hub behavior.

When ValueType is set equal to DEFAULT , the default behavior can be a specific Security Hub default value, or the default behavior can be to ignore a specific parameter. When ValueType is set equal to DEFAULT , Security Hub ignores user-provided input for the Value field.

When ValueType is set equal to CUSTOM , the Value field can't be empty.

Value -> (tagged union structure)

The current value of a control parameter.

Note

This is a Tagged Union structure. Only one of the following top level keys can be set: Integer, IntegerList, Double, String, StringList, Boolean, Enum, EnumList.

Integer -> (integer)

A control parameter that is an integer.

IntegerList -> (list)

A control parameter that is a list of integers.

(integer)

Double -> (double)

A control parameter that is a double.

String -> (string)

A control parameter that is a string.

StringList -> (list)

A control parameter that is a list of strings.

(string)

Boolean -> (boolean)

A control parameter that is a boolean.

Enum -> (string)

A control parameter that is an enum.

EnumList -> (list)

A control parameter that is a list of enums.

--tags (map)

User-defined tags associated with a configuration policy. For more information, see Tagging Security Hub resources in the Security Hub user guide .

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

Shorthand Syntax:

KeyName1=string,KeyName2=string

JSON Syntax:

{"string": "string"
  ...}

--cli-input-json (string) Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command's default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal's quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To create a configuration policy
