Security Hub controls for AWS IoT SiteWise

Focus mode
Security Hub controls for AWS IoT SiteWise - AWS Security Hub

These AWS Security Hub controls evaluate the AWS IoT SiteWise service and resources.

These controls may not be available in all AWS Regions. For more information, see Availability of controls by Region.

[IoTSiteWise.1] AWS IoT SiteWise asset models should be tagged

Category: Identify > Inventory > Tagging

Severity: Low

Resource type: AWS::IoTSiteWise::AssetModel

AWS Config rule: iotsitewise-asset-model-tagged

Schedule type: Change triggered

Parameters:

Parameter Description Type Allowed custom values Security Hub default value
requiredKeyTags List of non-system tag keys that the evaluated resource must contain. Tag keys are case sensitive. StringList List of tags that meet AWS requirements No default value

This control checks whether an AWS IoT SiteWise asset model has tags with the specific keys defined in the parameter requiredKeyTags. The control fails if the asset model doesn’t have any tag keys or if it doesn’t have all the keys specified in the parameter requiredKeyTags. If the parameter requiredKeyTags isn't provided, the control only checks for the existence of a tag key and fails if the asset model isn't tagged with any key. System tags, which are automatically applied and begin with aws:, are ignored.

A tag is a label that you assign to an AWS resource, and it consists of a key and an optional value. You can create tags to categorize resources by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria. Tags can help you identify, organize, search for, and filter resources. Tagging also helps you track accountable resource owners for actions and notifications. When you use tagging, you can implement attribute-based access control (ABAC) as an authorization strategy, which defines permissions based on tags. You can attach tags to IAM entities (users or roles) and to AWS resources. You can create a single ABAC policy or a separate set of policies for your IAM principals. You can design these ABAC policies to allow operations when the principal's tag matches the resource tag. For more information, see Define permissions based on attributes with ABAC authorization in the IAM User Guide.

Note

Don’t add personally identifiable information (PII) or other confidential or sensitive information in tags. Tags are accessible to many AWS services, including AWS Billing. For more tagging best practices, see Best practices and strategies in the Tagging AWS Resources and Tag Editor User Guide.

[IoTSiteWise.3] AWS IoT SiteWise gateways should be tagged

Category: Identify > Inventory > Tagging

Severity: Low

Resource type: AWS::IoTSiteWise::Gateway

AWS Config rule: iotsitewise-gateway-tagged

Schedule type: Change triggered

Parameters:

Parameter Description Type Allowed custom values Security Hub default value
requiredKeyTags List of non-system tag keys that the evaluated resource must contain. Tag keys are case sensitive. StringList List of tags that meet AWS requirements No default value

This control checks whether an AWS IoT SiteWise gateway has tags with the specific keys defined in the parameter requiredKeyTags.
