What CGPulse checks
A resource passes this rule when logging.clusterLogging must be set true. Anything else is reported as a finding with the evaluated property value attached as evidence.
How to fix it
Enable all control plane log types (api, audit, authenticator, controllerManager, scheduler) for full observability. In AWS Console: EKS > Clusters > select cluster > Logging > enable all types. See: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/eks/latest/userguide/control-plane-logs.html
Terraform
resource "aws_eks_cluster" "{name}" {
enabled_cluster_log_types = ["api", "audit", "authenticator", "controllerManager", "scheduler"]
}
