Amazon Linux 2023 Goss config

Overview

based on CIS 1.0.0 - 6th June 2023

This is bespoke to Amazon due to control IDs and associations. Redhat baselines can be more upto date but IDs and controls are not officially Amazon.

Set of configuration files and directories to run the stages of CIS of Amazon Linux 2023 servers

This is configured in a directory structure level.

Goss is run based on the goss.yml file in the top level directory. This specifies the configuration.
