Optional Arguments

$ aws_ir -h
usage: aws_ir [-h] [--case-number CASE_NUMBER]
              [--examiner-cidr-range EXAMINER_CIDR_RANGE]
              [--bucket-name BUCKET_NAME] [--dry-run]
              {instance-compromise,key-compromise} ...

Incident Response command line for Amazon Web Services. This command line
interface is designed to process instance and key based incursions without delay
or error.

positional arguments:
  {instance-compromise,key-compromise}
    instance-compromise
    key-compromise

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

  --case-number CASE_NUMBER
                        The case number to use., usually of the form
                        "cr-16-053018-2d2d"
  --examiner-cidr-range EXAMINER_CIDR_RANGE
                        The IP/CIDR for the examiner and/or the tool. This
                        will be added as the only allowed range in the
                        isolated security group.
  --bucket-name BUCKET_NAME
                        Optional. The id of the s3 bucket to use. This must
                        already exist
  --dry-run             Dry run. Pass dry run parameter to perform API calls
                        but will not modify any resources.

Key Compromise

The aws_ir subcommand key-compromise disables access keys in the case of a key compromise. It’s single argument is the access key id, he compromised key is disabled via the AWS api.

$ aws_ir key-compromise -h
usage: aws_ir key-compromise [-h] --access-key-id ACCESS_KEY_ID

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --access-key-id ACCESS_KEY_ID

Below is the output of running the key-compromise subcommand.

$ aws_ir key-compromise --access-key-id AKIAJGOVL2FIYOG6YFIA

Instance Compromise

The aws_ir subcommand instance-compromise preserves forensic artifacts from a compromised instance after isolating the instance. Once all artifacts are collected and tagged the compromised instance is powered off. The instance-compromise subcommand takes three arguments, the instance-ip of the compromised instance, a user with ssh access to the target instance, and the ssh-key used for authentication.

Currently user must be capable of passwordless sudo for memory capture to complete. If user does not have passwordless sudo capabilities all artifiacts save for the memory capture will be gathered.

$ aws_ir instance-compromise -h
usage: aws_ir instance-compromise [-h] --instance-ip INSTANCE_IP --user USER
                              --ssh-key SSH_KEY

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --instance-ip INSTANCE_IP
  --user USER           this is the privileged ssh user for acquiring memory
                        from the instance.
  --ssh-key SSH_KEY     provide the path to the ssh private key for the user.

AWS IR saves all forensic artifacts except for disk snapshots in an s3 bucket created for each case. Disk snapshots are tagged with the same case number as the rest of the rest of the artifacts.

Below is the output of running the instance-compromise subcommand.
