AWS Config Rule with No Evaluations

The rule has never assessed anything, so a control you believe is in force is not actually checking.

Free to start. No card. The playground just needs your work email.

01

Detect

ZopNight checks this automatically across AWS, with read-only access to the account.

02

Explain

Every finding says exactly what to change: Rescope or delete the unused AWS Config rule.

03

Fix

The finding opens with the fix already written out, step by step, so it is one ticket, not an investigation.

Applies to
AWS Config Rules on AWS
The fix, by hand
  1. AWS Config → Rules → the resource → review the evaluation history.
  2. Confirm zero non-compliant findings in the last 90 days AND the rule scope still matches live resources.
  3. If the rule belongs to a Conformance Pack, edit / delete the pack instead of the rule directly (otherwise it will re-deploy).
  4. If duplicate, identify the canonical rule and delete this one.
  5. If misconfigured, fix the parameters rather than delete.

These are the steps the finding carries in the product.
