# AWS Top 10 Mod for Powerpipe
The AWS Top 10 mod provides curated sets of benchmarks and controls for security, cost, operations, and more.
Run checks in a dashboard:
Or in a terminal:
## Documentation
- **[Benchmarks and controls →](https://hub.powerpipe.io/mods/turbot/aws_top_10/controls)**
- **[Named queries →](https://hub.powerpipe.io/mods/turbot/aws_top_10/queries)**
## Getting Started
### Installation
Install Powerpipe (https://powerpipe.io/downloads), or use Brew:
```sh
brew install turbot/tap/powerpipe
```
This mod also requires [Steampipe](https://steampipe.io) with the [AWS plugin](https://hub.steampipe.io/plugins/turbot/aws) as the data source. Install Steampipe (https://steampipe.io/downloads), or use Brew:
```sh
brew install turbot/tap/steampipe
steampipe plugin install aws
```
Steampipe will automatically use your default AWS credentials. Optionally, you can [setup multiple accounts](https://hub.steampipe.io/plugins/turbot/aws#multi-account-connections) or [customize AWS credentials](https://hub.steampipe.io/plugins/turbot/aws#configuring-aws-credentials).
Finally, install the mod:
```sh
mkdir dashboards
cd dashboards
powerpipe mod init
powerpipe mod install github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-aws-top-10
```
### Browsing Dashboards
Start Steampipe as the data source:
```sh
steampipe service start
```
Start the dashboard server:
```sh
powerpipe server
```
Browse and view your dashboards at **http://localhost:9033**.
### Running Checks in Your Terminal
Instead of running benchmarks in a dashboard, you can also run them within your
terminal with the `powerpipe benchmark` command:
List available benchmarks:
```sh
powerpipe benchmark list
```
Run a benchmark:
```sh
powerpipe benchmark run account_security
```
Different output formats are also available, for more information please see
[Output Formats](https://powerpipe.io/docs/reference/cli/benchmark#output-formats).
### Common and Tag Dimensions
The benchmark queries use common properties (like `account_id`, `connection_name` and `region`) and tags that are defined in the dependent [AWS Compliance mod](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-aws-compliance) and [AWS Perimeter mod](https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-mod-aws-perimeter). These properties can be executed in the following ways:
It's easiest to setup your vars file, starting with the sample:
```sh
cp powerpipe.ppvars.example powerpipe.ppvars
vi powerpipe.ppvars
```
Alternatively you can pass variables on the command line:
```sh
powerpipe benchmark run account_security_limit_security_groups --var 'tag_dimensions=["Environment", "Owner"]'
```
Or through environment variables:
```sh
export PP_VAR_common_dimensions='["account_id", "connection_name", "region"]'
export PP_VAR_tag_dimensions='["Environment", "Owner"]'
powerpipe benchmark run account_security_limit_security_groups
```
