AWS
Follow these steps to create a Read-Only Access IAM user and attach the ReadOnlyAccess policy in AWS.
Step 1: Create a New IAM User
Run the following command to create a new IAM user. Replace <nebu-readonly> with your desired username:
aws iam create-user --user-name nebu-readonly
Step 2: Attach the ReadOnlyAccess Policy to the User
The ReadOnlyAccess policy allows the user to view AWS resources but not modify them. Attach this policy using the following command:
aws iam attach-user-policy --user-name nebu-readonly --policy-arn arn:aws:iam::aws:policy/ReadOnlyAccess
Step 3: Create an Access Key for the User
we need programmatic access, create an access key:
aws iam create-access-key --user-name nebu-readonly
Final Step: Use Access Keys in NEBU Initialization
Enter the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key into NEBU’s initialization process.
NEBU will securely use this key to analyze your cloud configurations with read-only permissions.
