git clone https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-azure-compliance.git
cd steampipe-mod-azure-compliance

Usage

Start your dashboard server to get started:

steampipe dashboard

By default, the dashboard interface will then be launched in a new browser window at http://localhost:9194. From here, you can run benchmarks by selecting one or searching for a specific one.

Instead of running benchmarks in a dashboard, you can also run them within your terminal with the steampipe check command:

Run all benchmarks:

steampipe check all

Run a single benchmark:

steampipe check benchmark.cis_v130_6

Run a specific control:

steampipe check control.cis_v130_4_3_5

Different output formats are also available, for more information please see Output Formats.

Credentials

This mod uses the credentials configured in the Steampipe Azure plugin.

Configuration

No extra configuration is required.

Common and Tag Dimensions

The benchmark queries use common properties (like connection_name, resource_group, region, subscription and subscription_id) and tags that are defined in the form of a default list of strings in the mod.sp file. These properties can be overwritten in several ways:

• Copy and rename the steampipe.spvars.example file to steampipe.spvars, and then modify the variable values inside that file

• Pass in a value on the command line:

  steampipe check benchmark.cis_v140 --var 'common_dimensions=["resource_group", "region", "subscription", "subscription_id"]'

  steampipe check benchmark.cis_v140 --var 'tag_dimensions=["Department", "Environment"]'

• Set an environment variable:

  SP_VAR_common_dimensions='["resource_group", "region", "subscription", "subscription_id"]' steampipe check control.storage_account_use_virtual_service_endpoint

  SP_VAR_tag_dimensions='["Department", "Environment"]' steampipe check control.storage_account_use_virtual_service_endpoint
