Triage and Remediation

Remediation

To remediate the misconfiguration of a resource policy attachment in a custom schema registry for AWS CloudWatch using the AWS Management Console, follow these step-by-step instructions:

  1. Access AWS Console: Go to the AWS Management Console at https://aws.amazon.com and log in using your AWS account credentials.

  2. Navigate to CloudWatch: From the AWS Management Console dashboard, search for “CloudWatch” in the search bar at the top and select CloudWatch from the search results.

  3. Select Custom Schema Registry: In the CloudWatch console, navigate to the left-hand side menu and select “Custom Schema Registry” under the “Schemas” section.

  4. Identify Misconfigured Resource Policy: Look for the custom schema registry resource that has a misconfigured resource policy attachment. This misconfiguration could be due to incorrect permissions or a policy that is not compliant with best practices.

  5. Edit Resource Policy: Select the custom schema registry resource that has the misconfigured resource policy attachment. Look for an option to edit the resource policy or access control settings.

  6. Update Resource Policy: Update the resource policy to ensure that it follows the principle of least privilege. Make sure that only the necessary permissions are granted to the required entities and that the policy is compliant with AWS best practices.

  7. Review Changes: Before saving the updated resource policy, review the changes to ensure that the permissions are set correctly and that there are no unnecessary or overly permissive permissions granted.

  8. Save Changes: Once you have reviewed and confirmed the updated resource policy, save the changes to apply the remediation for the misconfigured resource policy attachment in the custom schema registry for AWS CloudWatch.

By following these steps and ensuring that the resource policy for the custom schema registry in AWS CloudWatch is correctly configured and compliant with best practices, you can effectively remediate the misconfiguration of a resource policy attachment in the AWS CloudWatch service using the AWS Management Console.
