4.1 Risk Score

This section provides the overall risk score of the CSP keys, cetificates, and services. There are three types of risks:

• High – A high score signifies the total number of shared keys, shared certificates, overly permissive (usage) keys, overly permissive certificate (keys usage), or non-compliant keys in use.

• Critical – A critical risk score indicates the total number of deleted keys, expired certificates, non-compliant certificates by algorithm, and unencrypted cloud services detected that need attention.

• Medium – A medium risk score indicates the total number of CSP-generated and overly permissive (management) keys in use.

The priority of the overall risk score is based on the count of risks in the following order:

• Critical

• High

• Medium

4.2 Top Security Issues

This section provides the following information about the keys and certificates:

• Shared keys: This section shows the total number of keys in the AWS connection that are shared by two or more services for encrypting the services. This information will help you determine which keys are at risk so that you can use unique encryption keys for better security.

• Shared certificates: This section shows the total number of certificates in the AWS connection that are shared across two or more services. Identifying these shared certificates helps you assess potential exposure risks and take action by using unique encryption certificates for enhanced security.

• Cryptography policy: This section shows the total number of keys in the cloud account that are violating the cryptographic policy that is set for a Fortanix Key Insight account. This information will help you determine which keys are non-compliant with the Key Insight Cryptographic policy so that you can generate new keys to encrypt the AWS services.

  Any key that utilizes the following algorithm and key size combinations is considered Non-Compliant in Fortanix Key Insight, according to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) 800-57 standard:

  • AES: Any key size less than 192 bits.

  • 3DES: Keys with size 112 bits and 168 bits.

  • DES: Keys with size 56 bits.

  • RSA: Keys with size less than 2048 bits.

  • DSA: Keys with size less than 2048 bits.

  • ECC: Keys with size less than 224 bits.

  The non-compliant keys increase the data security risk. They will be flagged as vulnerabilities on the Keys page.

  Fortanix Key Insight recommends using stronger key algorithms and ensuring that the key strength aligns with your defined policies and NIST standards.

• Quantum-vulnerable keys: For AWS CSP, this is the total number of keys in the AWS cloud account that utilizes Quantum-vulnerable algorithms. These are symmetric keys such as RSA, EC, and so on. This information will help you determine which services are encrypted using Quantum-vulnerable keys so that you can select to re-encrypt the services using a symmetric key such as AES 256.

• Unused keys: This section shows the total number of AWS keys that remain unused for encryption in the scanned data and supported services. You can use this information to identify unused keys and remove them for enhanced security.

  NOTE

  Fortanix Key Insight recommends removing any unused keys from your cloud as a best practice.

• Overly permissive keys [Usage]: This section displays the total number of AWS KMS keys with excessive usage permissions. Such keys can result in service violations and are assigned a high-risk score. This information helps analyze key usage to improve security.
  The overly permissive keys (usage) check examines Key Policies and Grants to determine if an AWS service principal is allowed to execute cryptographic operations without utilizing EncryptionContext or aws:SourceArn condition keys. Additionally, it identifies wildcard entries in the Principal field of policy statements that grant broad permissions for cryptographic operations on AWS KMS.

• Overly permissive keys [Management]: This section displays the total number of AWS KMS keys with excessive management permissions. Keys with overly permissive management permissions can lead to service violations and are assigned a medium risk score. This information helps analyze key usage to improve security.
  The overly permissive keys (management) check specifically examines Key Policies to identify policy statements that allow actions to modify keys where the Principal field contains wildcard entries. These wildcards (for example, users/*) can grant broad permissions and may expose the keys to unauthorized modifications.

• Overly permissive certificates [Key usage]: This section displays the total number of AWS certificates with excessive key usage permissions. The certificates with overly permissive key usage permissions can lead to service violations and are assigned a high risk score. Key usages are assigned based on specific roles such as,

  • TLS Web Server Authentication

  • TLS Web Client Authentication

  • Code Signing

  • Email Protection

  • Timestamping

  • OCSP Signing

  • IPSec End System

  • IPSec Tunnel

  • IPSec User

  Certificates are flagged as violated if they include multiple key usages beyond acceptable combinations, with three exceptions:

  1. A single key usage type.

  2. A combination of Web Server and Web Client Authentication.

  3. An empty or undefined key usage.

  Any other combination is considered overly permissive and potentially vulnerable.

  NOTE

  Fortanix Key Insight recommends reviewing and revalidating the AWS key and certificate policies as a best practice to avoid overly permissions.

Click each top security issue to access its corresponding list view.

4.3 Service Violations

For an AWS CSP, this section provides insights into service violations across your AWS cloud environment.

You can view the total number of cloud accounts and their associated services, along with specific violations tied to each service. These violations may result from the use of shared, deleted, or soon-to-be-deleted keys, excessive permissions, non-compliant configurations, or unencrypted keys. This data will help you identify which services are at risk, enabling you to implement unique, compliant, and encrypted keys for enhanced security.

Also,

• You can view risk levels for each service that are color-coded for easy identification.

• Select VIEW ALL to navigate to the Services page and explore individual key violations for each service.

NOTE

For S3, RDS, and EBS the count of Non-Compliant keys will always be 0 since all keys are compliant by default.

• You can click any service to view a detailed list of the top 10 key violations associated with it, sorted by severity. Click each violation type to navigate to the corresponding list view.

• Click BACK to navigate to the service violations card view.

4.4 Certificate Expiry by Issuers

4.6.2 External

This section displays the details on externally managed keys (the key source is External or External Key Store). It is represented as a green circle.

• BYOK: The circle represents the total number of keys that were imported into AWS using an external source. Refer to the Fortanix DSM using the Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) guide, where the key material of the key is imported into AWS KMS. Users bringing their keys must ensure that their key storage mechanisms are secure, preventing unauthorized access or key exposure. Click the circle or the warning icon   to go to the list view of the BYOK keys.

• External Key Store (XKS): The XKS circle represents the count of all the keys that are stored in an external key store, for example: a key store created by connecting AWS XKS with Fortanix DSM to encrypt or decrypt the customer’s data in AWS. Keys present in an External Key Store are more secure than BYOK or KMS keys.

• Fortanix: This key source refers to the external key source configured during AWS connection onboarding. The key count represents the number of keys correlated with Fortanix Key Insight from Fortanix DSM SaaS or On-Premises.

9.0 Scanned Data Export

This feature allows you to export the AWS scanned key and service-related data from Fortanix Key Insight in Comma-Separated Values (CSV) format. Also, it provides flexibility, enabling you to download data for detailed analysis, audits, or reporting, and to access real-time status.

In the AWS Keys, Certificates, and Services list view, you can click EXPORT to export the scanned data using any of the available options:

• Export current page: Use this option to export all column data from the current page in CSV format.

NOTE

You can download a maximum of 100 items at a time, based on the settings specified in the Items per page drop down.

• Export all raw data: Use this option to export all scanned data shown in the keys, certificates, and services tables in CSV format. If you select this option, you can read the details on the Export All Raw Data dialog box and click PROCEED to export all the data.

  After the export process begins, you can track its progress. The export status will be logged with a message under the Activities tab in Fortanix Key Insight. For more details, refer to Section 9.1: Manage Export Activities.

• Export selected rows: This option is disabled by default. You can select the required rows on the current page and then use this option to export them in CSV format.

NOTE

• Users with the Account Administrator and Group Administrator roles can only perform the scanned data export.

• Within the same account, you can have multiple exports running simultaneously from different cloud, on-premises, and external key source connections.

9.1 Manage Export Activities

After you initiate the export process using Export All Raw Data, you can track the export status in the Activities tab located in the left navigation panel of Fortanix Key Insight.

You can see the following details for each export:

• Name of the activity. For example, the activity would be named Export_all_keys if you had exported all the AWS keys.

• Name of the file. For example, Keys.csv.

• Activity status: This indicates the current state of the data export. This can be,

  • Completed: The data export has been successful, and the CSV file will automatically download to the location specified on your local machine.

  • In Progress: The data export is in progress, and you can cancel it using if required.

  • Cancelled: The data export has been canceled due to switching accounts or manually canceling it while it was in progress.

  • Failed: The data export was not completed and failed due to errors.

• Name of the connection

• Export creation date and time

NOTE

• If you switch to a different account during export, the export will be cancelled and logged in the Activities tab.

• If you navigate to a different solution (for example, Identity and Access Management), the export will continue, but no logs will appear in the Activities tab. The export status will be confirmed using toast a message.

• If you refresh the web page during the export, the confirmation dialog box will appear. If you refresh, the export will be cancelled, and all entries in the Activities tab will be removed. Therefore, it is recommended not to refresh the page during the export.
