About the azure_network_security_group Resource |
azure |
Use the azure_network_security_group
InSpec audit resource to test properties of an Azure Network Security Group.
This resource interacts with api versions supported by the resource provider.
The api_version
can be defined as a resource parameter.
If not provided, the latest version will be used.
For more information, refer to azure_generic_resource
.
Unless defined, azure_cloud
global endpoint, and default values for the http client will be used.
For more information, refer to the resource pack README.
This resource is available in the InSpec Azure resource pack.
For an example inspec.yml
file and how to set up your Azure credentials, refer to resource pack README.
An azure_network_security_group
resource block identifies a Network Security Group by name
and resource_group
or the resource_id
.
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should exist }
end
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_id: '/subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Network/networkSecurityGroups/{nsgName}') do
it { should exist }
end
Name | Description |
---|---|
resource_group | Azure resource group that the targeted resource resides in.MyResourceGroup |
name | Name of the Azure resource to test. MyNSG |
resource_id | The unique resource ID. /subscriptions/{subscriptionId}/resourceGroups/{resourceGroup}/providers/Microsoft.Network/networkSecurityGroups/{nsgName} |
Either one of the parameter sets can be provided for a valid query:
resource_id
resource_group
andname
Property | Description |
---|---|
security_rules | The set of security rules. |
default_security_rules | The set of default security rules. |
allow_ssh_from_internet* | A boolean value determined by analysing the security rules and default security rules for unrestricted SSH access. it { should_not allow_ssh_from_internet } |
allow_rdp_from_internet* | A boolean value determined by analysing the security rules and default security rules for unrestricted RDP access. it { should_not allow_rdp_from_internet } |
allow_port_from_internet* | A boolean value determined by analysing the security rules and default security rules for unrestricted access to a specified port. it { should_not allow_port_from_internet('443') } |
allow?** | Indicates if a provided criteria is complaint with the security rules including the default ones. it { should allow(source_ip_range: '10.0.0.0/24'), direction: 'inbound' } |
allowed?** | Alias for allow? . it { should be_allowed(source_ip_range: '10.0.0.0/24'), direction: 'inbound' } |
allow_in?** | Indicates if a provided criteria is complaint with the inbound security rules including the default ones. it { should_not allow_in(service_tag: 'Internet') } |
allowed_in?** | Alias for allow_in? . it { should_not be_allowed_in(service_tag: 'Internet') } |
allow_out?** | Indicates if a provided criteria is complaint with the outbound security rules including the default ones. it { should_not allow_out(service_tag: 'Internet') } |
allowed_out?** | Alias for allow_out? . it { should_not be_allowed_out(service_tag: 'Internet') } |
* These properties do not take the priorities of security rules into account.
For example, if there are two security rules and one of them is allowing SSH from internet while the other one is prohibiting, allow_ssh_from_internet
will pass without comparing the priority of the conflicting security rules.
Therefore, it is recommended to use allow
, allow_in
or allow_out
properties with which the priorities are taken into consideration.
** These properties do not compare criteria defined by explicit ip ranges with the security rules defined by Azure service tags and vice versa.
For example, providing that a network security group has a single security rule allowing all traffics from internet by using Internet
service tag in the source will fail the allow_in(ip_range: '64.233.160.0')
test due to incompatible source definitions.
This is because InSpec Azure resource pack has no control over which ip ranges are defined in Azure service tags.
Therefore, tests using these methods should be written explicitly for service tags and ip ranges.
For more information about network security groups and security rules refer to here.
*ip_range
used in these methods support IPv4 and IPv6. The ip range criteriaom should be written in CIDR notation.
For properties applicable to all resources, such as type

Also, refer to Azure documentation for other properties available.
Any property in the response may be accessed with the key names separated by dots (.

describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should exist }
end
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should allow_ssh_from_internet }
end
Test that a Network Security Group Allows Inbound Traffics from a Certain Ip Range in Any Port and Any Protocol
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should allow(source_ip_range: '10.0.0.0/24', direction: 'inbound') }
it { should allow_in(ip_range: '10.0.0.0/24') } # same test with the specific inbound rule check
end
Test that a Network Security Group Allows Inbound Traffics from Internet Service Tag in Port 80
and TCP
Protocol
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should allow(source_service_tag: 'Internet', destination_port: '22', protocol: 'TCP', direction: 'inbound') }
it { should allow_in(service_tag: 'Internet', port: '22', protocol: 'TCP') } # same test with the specific inbound rule check
end
Test that a Network Security Group Allows Inbound Traffics from Virtual Network Service Tag in a Range of Ports and Any Protocol
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should allow(source_service_tag: 'VirtualNetwork', destination_port: %w{22 8080 56-78}, direction: 'inbound') }
it { should allow_in(service_tag: 'VirtualNetwork', port: %w{22 8080 56-78}) } # same test with the specific inbound rule check
end
Test that a Network Security Group Allows Outbound Traffics to a Certain Ip Range in any Port and Any Protocol
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should allow(destination_ip_range: '10.0.0.0/24', direction: 'outbound') }
it { should allow_out(ip_range: '10.0.0.0/24') } # same test with the specific outbound rule check
end
Please note that allow
requires direction
parameter is set to either inbound
or outbound
and prefix the ip_range
, service_tag
and port
with either source_
or destination_
identifiers.
This InSpec audit resource has the following special matchers. For a full list of available matchers, please visit our Universal Matchers page.
The control will pass if the resource returns a result. Use should_not
if you expect zero matches.
# If we expect 'GroupName' to always e``xrubyst
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'GroupName') do
it { should exist }
end
# If we expect 'EmptyGroupName' to never e``xrubyst
describe azure_network_security_group(resource_group: 'example', name: 'EmptyGroupName') do
it { should_not exist }
end
Your Service Principal must be setup with a contributor
role on the subscription you wish to test.
