capture-all-regions

Explanation

Log profiles should capture all regions to ensure that all events are logged

Possible Impact

Activity may be occurring in locations that aren't being monitored

Suggested Resolution

Enable capture for all locations

Insecure Example

The following example will fail the azure-monitor-capture-all-regions check.

resource "azurerm_monitor_log_profile" "bad_example" {
  name = "bad_example"

  categories = []

  locations = [
    "westus",
    "global",
  ]

  retention_policy {
    enabled = true
    days    = 7
  }
}

Secure Example

The following example will pass the azure-monitor-capture-all-regions check.

resource "azurerm_monitor_log_profile" "bad_example" {
  name = "bad_example"

  categories = []

  locations = [
