Updating the Cye Cloud Posture Solution CloudFormation Template

How to update the CloudFormation StackSet in your AWS Organization so the Cye Cloud Posture Solution role receives permissions for newly monitored services.

This article shows you how to update the CloudFormation StackSet in your AWS Organization so that the Cye Cloud Posture Solution role receives the permissions for newly monitored services.


Overview

Cye Cloud Posture Solution occasionally changes the role permissions to include additional AWS services it monitors. Updating the CloudFormation StackSet with the current template adds the required permissions to the accounts the StackSet covers, so scans keep working across the whole organization.

  • Replace the Template: Edit the existing StackSet in the master account and point it at the current template URL, leaving every other form value unchanged.

  • Redeploy to Your Organization: Enter the OU ID (or the entire organization), choose the us-east-1 region, acknowledge the IAM resources notice, and submit.


1. Open the StackSet

The update is made on the StackSet that connected your organization, from the master account.

  1. Log in to the Org master account and open the CloudFormation console.

  2. Go to StackSets.

  3. Locate the StackSet Solvo-StackSet-Integration.

  4. From the Actions dropdown, select Edit StackSet details.


2. Replace the template

The current template lives at a fixed S3 URL, so you replace the template rather than uploading a file.

  1. Select Replace current template.

  2. In the Amazon S3 URL field, enter https://s3.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/solvo-cft-prod/onboarding-cft-rw.json.

  3. Click Next until you reach step 4. Do not change anything in the forms.


3. Set the deployment targets and submit

The last step tells CloudFormation which accounts receive the updated template.

  1. Fill in AWS OU ID (it can be the entire organization).

  2. Choose us-east-1 as the region, then click Next.

  3. Check I acknowledge that AWS CloudFormation might create IAM resources with custom names. and click Submit.
