How to use & What you leave with

Security Group Audit

High risk

Risk-categorized rule analysis with CIS benchmark checks, severity scoring, and remediation guidance.

Configuration Suite

Surgically adjust parameters for Security Group Audit

Methodology

This tool automates the core architectural decisions required for high-performance scale. It eliminates spreadsheet errors and gut feeling by using post-2026 optimized algorithms.

Output Precision

  • Surgical accuracy for production loads
  • Ready for direct export to Terraform/Docs

Paste lines like: ingress tcp 443 0.0.0.0/0 web-https. Supports JSON arrays too.

PRO TIP: Changes reflect in real-time. Use shortcuts for fast navigation.

Key Insights

  • 5 rules parsed: 2 critical, 0 high, 0 medium, 2 low severity. 1 properly scoped.
  • Critical: tcp/22 from 0.0.0.0/0; all/all from 0.0.0.0/0. These must be remediated before production.
  • CIS AWS Foundations: 3/5 checks passed. No SSH (22) open to 0.0.0.0/0; Egress is restricted (not open to all)

Actionable Next Steps

  • Immediately restrict 2 critical finding(s): 22 from 0.0.0.0/0, all from 0.0.0.0/0.
  • High-severity rules are clean.
  • Export the audit report and attach to the change request or security review ticket.
  • Address 2 failing CIS checks to improve compliance posture.

FAQ

Questions teams ask before they adopt this workflow.

When should teams use Security Group Rule Visualizer?

This tool is most useful when the team needs an answer they can carry into diagrams, documentation, and design reviews without rewriting the same context three times.

Who benefits most from Security Group Rule Visualizer?

Architects, platform teams, and technical leads benefit most because they need explicit assumptions, clear review cues, and artifacts that survive implementation handoff.

How does Security Group Rule Visualizer connect back to Architecto?

Architecto uses the free content surface as the top of a larger workflow. Once the team needs richer diagrams, schema visibility, change comparison, or technical documentation, the matching product module keeps the same decision context alive.
