Deploy AWS Security Audit Dashboard

This guide covers launching and using AWS Security Audit Dashboard from AWS Marketplace.

Prerequisites

• An AWS account with permission to subscribe to Marketplace products and create CloudFormation stacks (and the IAM role the template defines).

Step 1 — Subscribe & deploy the CloudFormation stack

1. On the AWS Marketplace listing, choose Continue to Subscribe → Continue to Configuration.
2. Select the CloudFormation Template fulfillment option and your Region, then Continue to Launch.
3. Choose Launch CloudFormation, review the template parameters, and create the stack. This provisions the dashboard instance and a read-only IAM role automatically.
4. Wait for the stack to reach CREATE_COMPLETE and the instance status checks to pass 2/2.

Step 2 — Open the dashboard

Configure the AWS cloudformation as directed below in the image.

Hit the next button until you see the below dashboard.

Now it is completed. Now you can open the AWS Security Audit dashboard.

Step 3. Open Dashboard

Wait for instance status check to update to 2/2 checks passed.

Now copy the Public IP of the instance.

http://<public-ip>

It will open like this:

Now paste the default username admin and the password is your instance ID (e.g. i-0a0419ef***11cce2).

Once you paste the username and the password click the sign-in button.

Now your dashboard is open. You can choose your desired service to view its Security Audit.

This is how you can use this AWS Security Audit Dashboard Packaged by IOanyT Innovations to view your account’s AWS Security Audit.

Default credentials: admin / Instance ID (password is the EC2 Instance ID). Change them immediately after first login.
