Remediate Wiz Alert on Azure VM with Open SSH Access - Slack - Workflow Template

Whenever an alert is raised on an Azure VM having an open access (from the internet) to SSH on port 22, orchestrate remediation.

Updated over 6 months ago

This workflow template orchestrates remediation for alerts triggered by Azure VMs exposed to the internet with open access on SSH port 22. The process entails retrieving the VM's details and tags, locating the instance owner via Slack (or defaulting to a Slack channel), and then requesting the owner to modify the Network Security Group (NSG). If consent is given, a rule is added to the NSG to block access. Conversely, if the owner declines or no response is given, a Jira issue is created, and the Wiz issue is updated with relevant notes. Automate the closure of potential security vulnerabilities with this robust workflow.
