azure_security_center_policy Resource

[edit on GitHub]

Use the azure_security_center_policy InSpec audit resource to test the properties and configuration of an Azure security policy.

Azure REST API Version, Endpoint, and HTTP Client Parameters

This resource interacts with API versions supported by the resource provider. The api_version can be defined as a resource parameter. If not provided, this resource uses the latest version. For more information, refer to the azure_generic_resource document.

Unless defined, this resource uses the azure_cloud global endpoint and default values for the HTTP client. For more information, refer to the resource pack README.

Installation

This resource is available in the Chef InSpec Azure resource pack.

See the Chef InSpec documentation on cloud platforms for information on configuring your Azure environment for InSpec and creating an InSpec profile that uses the InSpec Azure resource pack.

Syntax

An azure_security_center_policy resource block will lookup the default policy unless resource_group and name, or the resource_id parameter is given.

# The default security policy will be interrogated.

describe azure_security_center_policy do
  its('name') { should cmp 'default' }
end

describe azure_security_center_policy(resource_group: 'RESOURCE_GROUP', name: 'POLICY_NAME') do
  it { should exist }
end

describe azure_security_center_policy(resource_id: '/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/microsoft.Security/policies/{policy-name}') do
  it { should exist }
end

Parameters

resource_group
Azure resource group where the targeted resource resides.
name
Name of the security policy to test.
resource_id
The unique resource ID. /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/microsoft.Security/policies/{policy-name}.
default_policy_api_version<superscript>*</superscript>
The endpoint API version for the default_policy property. The latest version will be used unless provided.
auto_provisioning_settings_api_version<superscript>*</superscript>
The endpoint API version for the auto_provisioning_settings property. The latest version will be used unless provided.

* It will be ignored unless the default policy is tested.

Either one of the parameter sets can be provided for a valid query:

  • resource_id
