HIPAA Security - Implement elb-deletion-protection-enabled config rule

[dontirun]

Summary

As a developer

I would like to implement the elb-deletion-protection-enabled 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)(7)(i), 164.308(a)(7)(ii)(C)

Details

ruleId: HIPAA.Security-ELBDeletionProtectionEnabled

info: The Elastic�Load�Balancer does not have deletion protection enabled - (Control IDs: 164.308(a)(7)(i), 164.308(a)(7)(ii)(C))

Given Reason: This rule ensures that Elastic Load Balancing has deletion protection enabled. Use this feature to prevent your load balancer from being accidentally or maliciously deleted, which can lead to loss of availability for your applications.

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
