Description

Enabling 'DATA_READ' and 'DATA_WRITE' data access log types as part of the default IAM audit log config ensure important security events, such as unauthorized data access or modification, are tracked.

How to fix?

IAM default audit log config should include 'DATA_READ' and 'DATA_WRITE' log types.

Example configuration

resource "google_project_iam_audit_config" "allowed1" {
  project = "test-project"
  service = "allServices"

  audit_log_config {
    log_type = "DATA_READ"
  }

  audit_log_config {
    log_type = "DATA_WRITE"
  }
}
