Security

This story automatically finds AWS S3 buckets with Public Block Access disabled using Veza, routes each violation through a Jira-based remediation workflow, and logs evidence directly in Drata. So your team can fix misconfigurations and satisfy compliance controls without manual effort.


What you'll see:

  • Query Veza for active violations where the S3 Public Block Access Policy is disabled
  • Explode results so each bucket is handled individually
  • Create a Jira ticket per violation and prompt the team to decide: make private or approve as public
  • Route to a remediation branch that calls AWS directly to enable the Public Access Block policy
  • Add a follow-up comment to the Jira issue confirming the fix was applied
  • Handle the allowlist path separately, logging approved public buckets back in Jira
  • Retrieve vulnerability management controls from Drata with pagination, then create external evidence documents linked to Jira results

Perfect for:

  • Cloud security teams: Managing AWS misconfiguration backlogs across accounts with dozens of S3 buckets to review
  • GRC and compliance teams: Needing clean, auditable evidence in Drata tied to real remediation actions
  • SOC analysts: Triaging cloud violations and routing decisions without manual handoffs

Requirements:

  • Veza - API credentials with access to run violation queries
  • Jira - API token and project permissions to create and comment on issues
  • AWS - IAM credentials with s3:PutBucketPublicAccessBlock permissions
  • Drata - API credentials with access to controls and external evidence endpoints
  • Familiarity with your organization's S3 bucket allowlist process
