AWS Inspector2 Scanner

File Types#

AWS Inspector2 report can be imported in json format. Inspector2 name comes from API calls to “modern” Inspector API - aws inspector2 as opposite to Classic Inspector (previous version of the service), this is an example of how such report can be generated: aws inspector2 list-findings --filter-criteria '{"resourceId":[{"comparison":"EQUALS","value":"i-instance_id_here"}]}' --region us-east-1 > inspector2_findings.json

This parser can help to get findings in a delegated admin account for AWS Inspector or in a standalone AWS account. The parser is developed mostly for a scenario where findings are obtained for a specific resource like an ECR image or an instance, and uploaded to a test in a DefectDojo engagement that represents a branch from a git repository.

A minimal valid json file with no findings:

{
    "findings": []
}
