Altimeter is a system to graph and scan AWS resources across multiple AWS Organizations and Accounts.
Altimeter generates RDF files which can be loaded into a triplestore such as AWS Neptune for querying.
pip install altimeter
Altimeter's behavior is driven by a toml configuration file. A few sample
configuration files are included in the conf/ directory:
current_single_account.toml- scans the current account - this is the account for which the environment's currently configured AWS CLI credentials are.current_master_multi_account.toml- scans the current account and attempts to scan all organizational subaccounts - this configuration should be used if you are scanning all accounts in an organization. To do this the currently configured AWS CLI credentials should be pointing to an AWS Organizations master account.
To scan a subset of regions, set the region list parameter regions in the scan
section to a list of region names.
The following permissions are required for a scan of all supported resource types:
acm:DescribeCertificate
acm:ListCertificates
cloudtrail:DescribeTrails
dynamodb:DescribeContinuousBackups
dynamodb:DescribeTable
dynamodb:ListTables
ec2:DescribeFlowLogs

Additionally if you are doing multi-account scanning via an MPA master account you will also need:
organizations:DescribeOrganization
organizations:ListAccounts
organizations:ListAccountsForParent
organizations:ListOrganizationalUnitsForParent
organizations:ListRoots
Assuming you have configured AWS CLI credentials (see https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cli/latest/userguide/cli-chap-configure.html), run:
altimeter <path-to-config>
This will scan all resources in regions specified in the config file.
The full path to the generated RDF file will printed, for example:
Created /tmp/altimeter/20191018/1571425383/graph.rdf
This RDF file can then be loaded into a triplestore such as Neptune or Blazegraph for querying.
