HIPAA Security - Implement iam-policy-no-statements-with-full-access config rule

[dontirun]

Summary

As a developer

I would like to implement the iam-policy-no-statements-with-full-access config rule

So that I can check if qualified resources in my CDK app conforms to the following HIPAA Security control(s): 164.308(a)(3)(i), 164.308(a)(3)(ii)(A), 164.308(a)(3)(ii)(B), 164.308(a)(4)(i), 164.308(a)(4)(ii)(A), 164.308(a)(4)(ii)(B), 164.308(a)(4)(ii)(C), 164.312(a)(1)

Details

ruleId: HIPAA.Security-IAMPolicyNoStatementsWithFullAccess

info: The IAM policy grants full access - (Control IDs: 164.308(a)(3)(i), 164.308(a)(3)(ii)(A), 164.308(a)(3)(ii)(B), 164.308(a)(4)(i), 164.308(a)(4)(ii)(A), 164.308(a)(4)(ii)(B), 164.308(a)(4)(ii)(C), 164.312(a)(1))

Given Reason: Ensure IAM Actions are restricted to only those actions that are needed. Allowing users to have more privileges than needed to complete a task may violate the principle of least privilege and separation of duties.

Acceptance Criteria

If the rule can be implemented

Given a CDK app with a non-compliant resource

• When HIPAA Security Pack is enabled
• Then the CDK stack does not deploy and the user receives an ERROR with relevant Control ID information about the non compliant resource

Given a CDK app with a compliant resource

• When HIPAA Security Pack is enabled
• Then the CDK stack deploys and the user does not receive an ERROR about the compliant resource

Given the cdk-nag RULES file

• When the HIPAA.Security-IAMPolicyNoStatementsWithFullAccess rule is added to the rule pack
• Then the HIPAA Security Errors section is updated with the rule information

If the rule cannot be implemented

Given the cdk-nag RULES file

• When the iam-policy-no-statements-with-full-access check is not added to the rule pack
