1. Log in to the AWS Management Console.
2. Go to the EC2 Dashboard.
3. Click on the “Security Groups” option in the left-hand menu.
4. Identify the security group(s) that have a name prefixed with “launch-wizard”.
5. Select the security group(s) that need to be remediated.
6. Click on the “Actions” button, and then select “Edit Group Name”.
7. Rename the security group(s) to a more descriptive and meaningful name that does not include the “launch-wizard” prefix.
8. Click on the “Save” button to save the changes.

​

1. Open the AWS CLI on your local machine or on the AWS EC2 instance.
2. Run the following command to list all the security groups in your account:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws ec2 describe-security-groups
   

3. Identify the security group that has a name prefixed with “launch-wizard”.
4. Run the following command to rename the security group:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws ec2 update-security-group-name --group-id <security-group-id> --group-name <new-security-group-name>
   

   Replace <security-group-id> with the ID of the security group that you want to rename, and <new-security-group-name> with a new name for the security group that does not have “launch-wizard” prefix. For example:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws ec2 update-security-group-name --group-id sg-0123456789abcdef0 --group-name my-security-group
   

5. Verify that the security group has been renamed successfully by running the following command:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   aws ec2 describe-security-groups --group-ids <security-group-id>
   

   Replace <security-group-id> with the ID of the security group that you have renamed. The output should show the new name of the security group.

1. Import the required modules:

import boto3

2. Connect to the AWS account:

client = boto3.client('ec2')

3. Get all the security groups:

response = client.describe_security_groups()

4. Loop through all the security groups and check if the name is prefixed with launch-wizard:

for sg in response['SecurityGroups']:
    if sg['GroupName'].startswith('launch-wizard'):
        # Delete the security group
        client.delete_security_group(GroupId=sg['GroupId'])

5. The above code will delete all the security groups that have a name prefixed with launch-wizard. If you want to rename the security group, you can use the below code:

for sg in response['SecurityGroups']:
    if sg['GroupName'].startswith('launch-wizard'):
        new_name = sg['GroupName'].replace('launch-wizard', 'new-name')
        # Rename the security group
        client.update_security_group_name_description(GroupId=sg['GroupId'], GroupName=new_name, Description='New Description')

6. The above code will rename all the security groups that have a name prefixed with launch-wizard to new-name. You can also update the description of the security group as per your requirement.
