Summary

  • Refreshes aws-review from a CIS AWS Foundations v3.0.0-only, 62-denominator model to CIS AWS Foundations v5.0.0-aware reporting.
  • Adds benchmark preflight fields for benchmark version, source date, Security Hub standard ARN/version, evidence source, legacy baseline, and denominator source.
  • Adds support-status categories for current v5 supported, legacy, removed, unsupported by Security Hub, manual evidence, and not evaluable controls.
  • Replaces the old five-section v3-only checklist with a Security Hub CSPM v5.0.0 control-family catalog and version mapping/scoring rules.
  • Adds benign and vulnerable fixtures showing a proper Security Hub v5 report versus a stale v3 report presented as current.
