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

  1. Enter the Access Key ID and Secret Access Key into NEBUโ€™s initialization process.

  2. NEBU will securely use this key to analyze your cloud configurations with read-only permissions.
