What CGPulse checks
A resource passes this rule when tracingEnabled must equal true. Anything else is reported as a finding with the evaluated property value attached as evidence.
How to fix it
Enable X-Ray tracing for distributed tracing across service invocations. In AWS Console: Step Functions > State machines > select > Edit > enable X-Ray tracing. See: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/step-functions/latest/dg/concepts-xray-tracing.html
Terraform
resource "aws_sfn_state_machine" "{name}" {
tracing_configuration {
enabled = true
}
}
