Terraform AWS Session Manager

A Terraform module to setup AWS Systems Manager Session Manager.

This module creates the a SSM document to support encrypted session manager communication and logs. It also creates a KMS key, S3 bucket, and CloudWatch Log group to store logs. In addition, for EC2 instances without a public IP address it can create VPC endpoints to enable private session manager communication. However, the VPC endpoint creation can also be facilitated by other modules such as this. Be aware of the AWS PrivateLink pricing before deployment.

Usage

Update version to the latest release here: https://github.com/bridgecrewio/terraform-aws-session-manager/releases

Instances with Public IPs do not need VPC endpoints

module "ssm" {
  source                    = "bridgecrewio/session-manager/aws"
  version                   = "0.2.0"
  bucket_name               = "my-session-logs"
  access_log_bucket_name    = "my-session-access-logs"
  enable_log_to_s3          = true
  enable_log_to_cloudwatch  = true
  linux_shell_profile       = "date"
}

Private instances with VPC endpoints for S3 and CloudWatch logging

module "ssm" {
  source                    = "bridgecrewio/session-manager/aws"
  version                   = "0.2.0"
  bucket_name               = "my-session-logs"
  access_log_bucket_name    = "my-session-access-logs"
  vpc_id                    = "vpc-0dc9ef19c0c23aeaa"
  tags                      = {
                                Function = "ssm"
                              }
  enable_log_to_s3          = true
  enable_log_to_cloudwatch  = true
  vpc_endpoints_enabled     = true
}

This module does not create any IAM policies for access to session manager. To do that, look at example policies in the AWS Documentation

SSM Usage Example

Launch an instance using the ssm_profile created by Terraform
Install the session-manager-plugin and start a session

cd /tmp
curl "https://s3.amazonaws.com/session-manager-downloads/plugin/latest/mac/sessionmanager-bundle.zip" -o "sessionmanager-bundle.zip"
unzip sessionmanager-bundle.zip
sudo ./sessionmanager-bundle/install -i /usr/local/sessionmanagerplugin -b /usr/local/bin/session-manager-plugin

# Verify
session-manager-plugin

cd -

# Start an SSM session - Note the instance must have a public IP if you have not created VPC endpoints
aws ssm start-session --target <EC2 Instance ID>

Review session logs in your CloudWatch logs group
Review session logs in your S3 bucket
