Terraform module to deploy AWS Security Hub.
Tip
Cloud Posse uses atmos to easily orchestrate multiple environments using Terraform.
Works with Github Actions, Atlantis, or Spacelift.
Watch demo of using Atmos with Terraform
Example of running
atmos to manage infrastructure from our Quick Start tutorial.
This module enables AWS Security Hub in one region of one account and optionally sets up an SNS topic to receive notifications of its findings.
For a complete example, see examples/complete.
For automated tests of the complete example using bats and Terratest (which tests and deploys the example on AWS), see test.
Here's how to invoke this module in your projects:
module "securityhub" {
source = "cloudposse/security-hub/aws"
# Cloud Posse recommends pinning every module to a specific version
# version = "x.x.x"
create_sns_topic = true
subscribers = {
opsgenie = {
protocol = "https"
endpoint = "https://api.example.com/v1/"
endpoint_auto_confirms = true
raw_message_delivery = false
}
}
}Important
In Cloud Posse's examples, we avoid pinning modules to specific versions to prevent discrepancies between the documentation and the latest released versions. However, for your own projects, we strongly advise pinning each module to the exact version you're using. This practice ensures the stability of your infrastructure. Additionally, we recommend implementing a systematic approach for updating versions to avoid unexpected changes.

Values are maps of the form {<br> format = string<br> labels = list(string)<br>}(Type is any so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)format is a Terraform format string to be passed to the format() function.labels is a list of labels, in order, to pass to format() function.Label values will be normalized before being passed to format() so they will beidentical to how they appear in id.Default is {} (descriptors output will be empty). |
