Control: AWS > CIS v2.0 > 4 - Monitoring > 4.10 - Ensure security group changes are monitored

Configures auditing against a CIS Benchmark item.

Level: 2

Real-time monitoring of API calls can be achieved by directing CloudTrail Logs to CloudWatch Logs, or an external Security information and event management (SIEM) environment, and establishing corresponding metric filters and alarms. Security Groups are a stateful packet filter that controls ingress and egress traffic within a VPC.

It is recommended that a metric filter and alarm be established for detecting changes to Security Groups.
