Lb global backend services logging enabled remediation

Using Console

Using CLI

To remediate the Load Balancer Global Backend Services should have logging enabled in GCP, you can follow the below steps using GCP CLI:

Open the Cloud Shell in the GCP Console.
Run the following command to enable logging for the backend service:
```
gcloud compute backend-services update [BACKEND_SERVICE_NAME] --global --enable-logging
```
Replace [BACKEND_SERVICE_NAME] with the name of the backend service for which you want to enable logging.
Once the command is executed successfully, the logging will be enabled for the backend service.
You can verify the logging is enabled by running the following command:
```
gcloud compute backend-services describe [BACKEND_SERVICE_NAME] --global | grep loggingEnabled
```
This command should return the value loggingEnabled: true.

By following the above steps, you can remediate the Load Balancer Global Backend Services should have logging enabled misconfiguration in GCP using GCP CLI.

Using Python

To remediate the misconfiguration of Load Balancer Global Backend Services not having logging enabled in GCP using Python, follow the steps below:

Import the necessary libraries:

from googleapiclient.discovery import build
from google.oauth2 import service_account

Set up the credentials using the service account key file:

credentials = service_account.Credentials.from_service_account_file('<path_to_service_account_key_file>')

Create a service object for the Compute Engine API:

service = build('compute', 'v1', credentials=credentials)

Get the project ID:

project_id = '<your_project_id>'

Get the list of all the backend services:

backend_services = service.backendServices().list(project=project_id).execute()

Loop through the backend services and enable logging for each one:

for backend_service in backend_services['items']:
    backend_service_name = backend_service['name']
    backend_service_url = f'/compute/v1/projects/{project_id}/global/backendServices/{backend_service_name}'
    
    # Get the current backend service configuration
    backend_service_config = service.backendServices().get(project=project_id, backendService=backend_service_name).execute()
    
    # Check if logging is already enabled
    if 'loadBalancingScheme' in backend_service_config and 'logConfig' in backend_service_config['loadBalancingScheme']:
        print(f"Logging is already enabled for backend service {backend_service_name}")
    else:
        # Enable logging
        backend_service_config['loadBalancingScheme']['logConfig'] = {'enable': True}
        request = service.backendServices().update(project=project_id, backendService=backend_service_name, body=backend_service_config)
        request.execute()
        print(f"Logging has been enabled for backend service {backend_service_name}")

Run the script and verify that logging has been enabled for all the backend services.

Note: Make sure that the service account used has the necessary permissions to modify the backend services.
