eks-cluster-logging: Kubernetes Cluster Logging

id: eks-cluster-logging

info:
  name: Kubernetes Cluster Logging
  author: princechaddha
  severity: low
  description: |
    Ensure that your Amazon Elastic Kubernetes Service (EKS) clusters have control plane logs enabled to publish API, audit, controller manager, scheduler and authenticator logs to AWS CloudWatch Logs.
  impact: |
    Without control plane logging enabled, you lose visibility into API requests, authentication attempts, and cluster operations, making it difficult to monitor, troubleshoot, and audit cluster activities.
  remediation: |
    Enable control plane logging for your EKS cluster by configuring all log types (api, audit, authenticator, controllerManager, scheduler) in the cluster configuration.
