Configure logging for Amazon ECS task definitions to capture detailed application and container activity.
Note: This recommendation assumes that only the latest active revision of a task definition is in use. If older revisions are in use, apply the audit and remediation procedures to those revisions as needed.
Logging facilitates effective monitoring, troubleshooting, and incident response, improving security and enabling rapid threat detection.
Logging can incur costs for storage and processing, along with initial configuration and ongoing management.
Task definitions.JSON.containerDefinitions has a logConfiguration property defined, and that the value for logDriver is not null.Run the following command to list task definitions:
aws ecs list-task-definitions
For the latest revision of a task definition, run the following command:
aws ecs describe-task-definition --task-definition <task-definition-arn> --query 'taskDefinition.containerDefinitions[*].logConfiguration'
Ensure that the command returns at least one logConfiguration object, and that the value for logDriver is not null.
Repeat for each task definition.
At least one container in each task definition should have a logConfiguration with a valid logDriver configured.
Task definitions.Create new revisionCreate new revision again.Logging > Log collection, check the box next to Use log collection and further configure the log collection options as needed.Note: When a task definition is updated, running tasks launched from the previous task definition remain unchanged. Updating a running task requires redeploying it with the new task definition.
No specific CLI remediation provided. Register a new task definition revision with logConfiguration configured using aws ecs register-task-definition.
Logging is enabled by default when a task definition is created via the console.
