Beagle

Beagle is an AWS policy judge (decision maker).

beagle

Beagle acts like a decision maker being usefull in places where you need to evaluate if an AWS policy is to permissive, give access to sensitive data, give destructive permissions among other use cases.

To do that you need provide a set of laws to beagle and one or more policies, then he will check if your policies are breaking any laws.

Concepts

Beagle is really simple and relies on two simple concepts.

Laws

Set of aws policies containg the actions you do not allow to be gave.

Policies

One or more policies that are going to be judge by the defined laws.

How Beagle takes his decision

Beagle uses AWS simluate custom policy API to determine if the provided policies are not breaking any law.

Example

We have the following policy which allows an entity to perform the PutObject action in any bucket

{
  "Version":"2012-10-17",
    "Statement":[
    {
      "Effect":"Allow",
      "Action":[
        "s3:PutObject"
      ],
      "Resource":"*"
    }
  ]
}

and the law above that does not allow any any action on s3 in a specific resource.

{
  "Version":"2012-10-17",
    "Statement":[
    {
      "Effect":"Deny",
      "Action":[
        "s3:PutObject"
        "s3:GetObject"
      ],
      "Resource":[
        "arn:aws:s3:::bucket-with-secrets/*"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Beagle will decide if the policy is not breaking the laws. To do that just save the previous policy on a file policy.json and the law in a directory of laws such as laws/s3-secret-bucket.json and then just run the following command.

clojure -m beagle.cli check --policy policy.json -l laws/
You can not trust in it.
