November 2023 Linux Agent Release

  • Resolved an issue with the ssm-agent Terraform module that prevented the agent from connecting to the Lacework platform - From Oct 17, 2023 through November 3, 2023, the ssm-agent Terraform module that can create an AWS Systems Manager document to deploy the Lacework agent to AWS EC2 instances had an issue that prevented the agent from reading the config.json file. If you used the ssm-agent Terraform module to deploy agents during this time, you may have agents that are unable to connect to the Lacework platform. Lacework recommends that you do the following:

    1. In the Lacework Console, go to Resources > Agents, and verify if the agents you installed using the Terraform module between Oct 17, 2023 through November 3, 2023 are displayed in the Agents dossier.
      • The Agent monitor table displays the list of agents that are connected to the Lacework platform.
      • The AWS Instances with no Lacework agent table displays the list of EC2 instances on which agents are not installed, or the installed agents are unable to connect to the Lacework platform.
    2. If the agents you installed are not displayed in the Agent monitor table, do the following:
      1. Ensure that you are using the latest version of the Terraform module.
      2. Run the ssm-agent Terraform module again to deploy the agent. For more information, see Install on AWS EC2 with Terraform and AWS Systems Manager.

    Please reach out to Lacework Customer Support if you need more information.
