80+ checks covering industry defined security best practices for Google Cloud services.

Includes full support for v1.2.0 CIS, v1.3.0 CIS, v2.0.0 CIS, v3.0.0 CIS, v4.0.0 CIS, CFT Scorecard, Forseti Security, HIPAA, PCI DSS v3.2.1, NIST CSF v1.0 and NIST 800-53 Revision 5 benchmarks.

Run checks in a dashboard:

Or in a terminal:

• Benchmarks and controls →
• Named queries →

Install Powerpipe (https://powerpipe.io/downloads), or use Brew:

brew install turbot/tap/powerpipe

This mod also requiresSteampipe with theGCP plugin as the data source. Install Steampipe (https://steampipe.io/downloads), or use Brew:

brew install turbot/tap/steampipesteampipe plugin install gcp

Steampipe will automatically use your default GCP credentials. Optionally, you cansetup multiple projects.

Finally, install the mod:

mkdir dashboardscd dashboardspowerpipe mod initpowerpipe mod install github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-gcp-compliance

Start Steampipe as the data source:

steampipe service start

Start the dashboard server:

powerpipe server

Browse and view your dashboards athttp://localhost:9033.

Instead of running benchmarks in a dashboard, you can also run them within yourterminal with thepowerpipe benchmark command:

List available benchmarks:

powerpipe benchmark list

Run a benchmark:

powerpipe benchmark run gcp_compliance.benchmark.cis_v200

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

The benchmark queries use common properties (likeconnection_name,location andproject) and tags that are defined in the form of a default list of strings in thevariables.sp file. These properties can be overwritten in several ways:

It's easiest to setup your vars file, starting with the sample:

cp powerpipe.ppvars.example powerpipe.ppvarsvi powerpipe.ppvars

Alternatively you can pass variables on the command line:

powerpipe benchmark run gcp_compliance.benchmark.cis_v200 --var'tag_dimensions=["environment", "owner"]'

Or through environment variables:

export PP_VAR_common_dimensions='["connection_name", "location", "project"]'export PP_VAR_tag_dimensions='["environment", "owner"]'powerpipe benchmark run gcp_compliance.benchmark.cis_v200
