# AWS CIS Controls Compliance Assessment Framework

A production-ready, enterprise-grade framework for evaluating AWS account configurations against CIS Controls Implementation Groups (IG1, IG2, IG3) using AWS Config rule specifications. **Enhanced CIS Controls coverage** with 125 IG1 rules implemented.

> **Production Status**: This framework is production-ready and actively deployed in enterprise environments. It provides comprehensive point-in-time compliance assessments while we recommend [AWS Config](https://aws.amazon.com/config/) for ongoing continuous compliance monitoring and automated remediation.

## 🎯 Key Features

- **✅ Enhanced IG1 Coverage**: 125 IG1 rules implemented (75%+ coverage of CIS Controls v8.1 IG1 safeguards)
- **✅ 50 New Rules Added**: Comprehensive expansion across security services, logging, encryption, inventory, configuration management, and backup security
- **✅ Dual Scoring System**: Both weighted and AWS Config-style scoring methodologies
- **✅ Enhanced HTML Reports**: Control names, working search, improved remediation display
- **✅ Enterprise Ready**: Production-tested with enterprise-grade architecture
- **✅ Performance Optimized**: Handles large-scale assessments efficiently
- **✅ Multi-Format Reports**: JSON, HTML, and CSV with detailed remediation guidance
- **✅ No AWS Config Required**: Direct AWS API calls based on Config rule specifications
- **✅ Comprehensive Remediation**: Every rule includes CLI commands, console steps, best practices, and AWS documentation links

## 🚀 Quick Start

### Installation

```bash
# Install from PyPI (production-ready)
pip install aws-cis-controls-assessment

# Or install from source for development
git clone <repository-url>
cd aws-cis-controls-assessment
pip install -e .
```

### Basic Usage

```bash
# Run complete assessment (all 163 rules) - defaults to us-east-1
aws-cis-assess assess --aws-profile my-aws-profile

# Assess multiple regions
aws-cis-assess assess --aws-profile my-aws-profile --regions us-east-1,us-west-2

# Assess specific Implementation Group using short flag (defaults to us-east-1)
aws-cis-assess assess -p my-aws-profile --implementation-groups IG1 --output-format json

# Generate comprehensive HTML report (defaults to us-east-1)
aws-cis-assess assess --aws-profile production --output-format html --output-file compliance-report.html

# Enterprise multi-region assessment with multiple formats
aws-cis-assess assess -p security-audit --implementation-groups IG1,IG2,IG3 --regions all --output-format html,json --output-dir ./reports/

# Quick assessment with default profile and default region (us-east-1)
aws-cis-assess assess --output-format json
```
