What CGPulse checks
A resource passes this rule when deletionProtection must equal true. Anything else is reported as a finding with the evaluated property value attached as evidence.
How to fix it
Enable deletion/termination protection to prevent accidental data loss. In AWS Console: Resource > Settings > enable Deletion protection. See: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/prescriptive-guidance/latest/backup-recovery/best-practices.html
Terraform
resource "aws_neptune_cluster" "{name}" {
deletion_protection = true
}
