Hi @corecomputetools,

If you're talking about AWS security groups then have a look here :

"You can layer Config, CloudTrail, and CloudWatch Events on top of Amazon VPC security groups to provide a defense-in-depth approach to security. Though VPC security groups provide critical filtering capabilities, Config rules, CloudTrail, and CloudWatch Events take the protection to a deeper level by monitoring security groups and notifying you of potentially unintended changes."

If you're talking about Splunk roles then you can use the following REST endpoint to craft a search that fetches specifically the roles and users you wish to monitor :

| rest services/authorization/roles

Let me know if that helps.

Cheers,
David
