# CFAT Dynamic Weight Configuration System

## 🎯 Overview

The Cloud Foundations Assessment Tool (CFAT) now supports dynamic weight configuration, replacing the previous 30+ hardcoded weight values with a flexible, environment-aware system that supports multiple compliance frameworks and organizational contexts.

## ✅ Enterprise Benefits

- **Framework Alignment**: Weights automatically adjust based on compliance requirements (SOC2, PCI-DSS, HIPAA, NIST, etc.)
- **Environment Awareness**: Different weight profiles for development, staging, and production environments
- **Organization Scaling**: Weights adapt to organization size and maturity
- **Custom Overrides**: Fine-grained control for specific requirements
- **Universal Compatibility**: Maintains backward compatibility while enabling advanced configuration

## 🔧 Quick Start

### Basic Usage
```typescript
import { getDefaultWeightConfig } from './weight_config.js';

// Use environment-based configuration
const weights = getDefaultWeightConfig();

// Apply weights to CFAT checks
const orgCheck: CfatCheck = {
  check: "AWS Organization created",
  weight: weights.organization_created,  // Dynamic weight
  // ... other properties
};
```

### Environment Configuration
```bash
# Set compliance framework
export CFAT_COMPLIANCE_FRAMEWORK="soc2"

# Set environment type
export CFAT_ENVIRONMENT_TYPE="production"

# Set organization size
export CFAT_ORG_SIZE="large"

# Custom weight overrides (JSON format)
export CFAT_WEIGHT_OVERRIDES='{"organization_created": 8, "cloudtrail_created": 9}'
```

## 📋 Supported Compliance Frameworks

### AWS Well-Architected (Default)
- **Focus**: Balanced approach following AWS best practices
- **Weight Distribution**: Standard 4-6 weight range

  - Enhanced management account hygiene (IAM users: 5, EC2: 5, VPC: 5)
  - Stronger backup requirements (Backup policies: 6)

### PCI-DSS
- **Focus**: Data protection and network isolation
- **Key Changes**:
  - Critical network isolation (IAM users: 6, EC2: 6, VPC: 6)
  - Enhanced security monitoring (all security services: 6)
  - Mandatory data protection controls

### HIPAA
- **Focus**: Healthcare data protection and audit trails
- **Key Changes**:
  - Enhanced audit logging (Config service: 6)
  - Mandatory backup policies (Backup: 6)
  - Strict access controls and monitoring

### NIST Cybersecurity Framework
- **Focus**: Identify, Protect, Detect, Respond, Recover

## 🌍 Environment-Based Adjustments

### Development (20% reduction)
- **Purpose**: Relaxed requirements for development environments
- **Example**: Weight 6 → Weight 5, Weight 4 → Weight 3

### Staging (10% reduction)
- **Purpose**: Slightly relaxed for testing environments
- **Example**: Weight 6 → Weight 5, Weight 4 → Weight 4

### Production (Full weight)
- **Purpose**: Full compliance requirements
- **Example**: Weights unchanged

### Sandbox (40% reduction)
- **Purpose**: Minimal requirements for experimentation
- **Example**: Weight 6 → Weight 4, Weight 4 → Weight 2

## 🏢 Organization Size Scaling

### Small Organizations (< 10 accounts)
- **Adjustments**:
  - Infrastructure OU: -1 weight
  - Workloads OU: -1 weight
  - Backup policies: -1 weight
- **Rationale**: Smaller organizations may not need complex OU structures

### Medium Organizations (10-100 accounts)
- **Adjustments**: No changes (baseline)
- **Rationale**: Standard requirements apply

### Large Organizations (100-1000 accounts)
- **Adjustments**:
  - SCP enabled: +1 weight
  - Tag policies: +1 weight
  - Backup policies: +1 weight
- **Rationale**: Enhanced governance needed for scale

### Enterprise Organizations (> 1000 accounts)
- **Adjustments**:
  - All Large adjustments plus:
  - Control Tower: +1 weight
  - Security OU: +1 weight
- **Rationale**: Maximum governance for enterprise scale

## 🛠️ Advanced Configuration

### Custom Weight Overrides
```typescript
import { getWeightConfig, ComplianceFramework, EnvironmentType, OrganizationSize } from './weight_config.js';

const customWeights = getWeightConfig(
  ComplianceFramework.SOC2,
  EnvironmentType.PRODUCTION,
  OrganizationSize.LARGE,
  {
    // Custom overrides
    organization_created: 8,
    cloudtrail_created: 10,
    iam_users_removed: 2
  }
);
```

### Validation
```typescript
import { validateWeightConfig } from './weight_config.js';

const validation = validateWeightConfig(customWeights);
if (!validation.valid) {
  console.error('Weight validation failed:', validation.errors);
}
```

## 🔄 Migration Guide

### From Hardcoded Weights

**Before:**
```typescript
const check: CfatCheck = {
  check: "AWS Organization created",
  weight: 6,  // Hardcoded
  // ...
};
```

**After:**
```typescript
import { getDefaultWeightConfig } from './weight_config.js';
const weights = getDefaultWeightConfig();

const check: CfatCheck = {
  check: "AWS Organization created",
  weight: weights.organization_created,  // Dynamic
  // ...
};
```

### Remaining Implementation

The following weight assignments in `app.ts` still need to be updated:

1. **Backup org service enabled** (line ~485): `weights.backup_org_service_enabled`
2. **Infrastructure OU deployed** (line ~495): `weights.infrastructure_ou_deployed`
3. **Workloads OU deployed** (line ~517): `weights.workloads_ou_deployed`
4. **IAM Identity Center org service** (line ~528): `weights.iam_idc_org_service_enabled`
5. **IAM Identity Center configured** (line ~539): `weights.iam_idc_configured`
6. **Service Control Policies enabled** (line ~550): `weights.scp_enabled`
7. **Tag policies enabled** (line ~561): `weights.tag_policy_enabled`
8. **Backup policies enabled** (line ~572): `weights.backup_policy_enabled`
9. **Control Tower deployed** (line ~583): `weights.control_tower_deployed`
10. **Control Tower latest version** (line ~594): `weights.control_tower_latest_version`
11. **Control Tower not drifted** (line ~605): `weights.control_tower_not_drifted`
12. **Log Archive account deployed** (line ~616): `weights.log_archive_account_deployed`
13. **Audit account deployed** (line ~627): `weights.audit_account_deployed`

### Validation Commands

```bash
# Syntax validation
tsc --noEmit src/runbooks/cfat/app.ts

# Weight configuration test
node -e "console.log(require('./weight_config.js').getDefaultWeightConfig())"

# Full CFAT execution test
npm run cfat -- --help
```

## 🌟 Best Practices

1. **Environment Variables**: Use environment variables for deployment-specific configuration
2. **Framework Selection**: Choose compliance framework based on regulatory requirements
3. **Organization Size**: Set appropriate size for scaling adjustments
4. **Custom Overrides**: Use sparingly and document rationale
5. **Testing**: Validate configuration changes with comprehensive test suite
6. **Documentation**: Document any custom weight decisions

## 🐛 Troubleshooting

### Common Issues

**Issue**: "Weight for X must be between 1 and 10"
**Solution**: Check custom overrides for invalid values

**Issue**: "Invalid JSON in CFAT_WEIGHT_OVERRIDES"
**Solution**: Validate JSON syntax in environment variable

**Issue**: "Cannot find module './weight_config.js'"
**Solution**: Ensure weight_config.ts is compiled to JavaScript

**Issue**: Unexpected weight values
**Solution**: Check environment variables and size/framework settings

### Debug Commands

```bash
# Check current configuration
node -e "
const { loadWeightConfigFromEnv, getWeightConfig } = require('./weight_config.js');
const env = loadWeightConfigFromEnv();
console.log('Environment:', env);
console.log('Weights:', getWeightConfig(env.framework, env.environment, env.orgSize, env.customOverrides));
"

# Validate specific weights
node -e "
const { validateWeightConfig, getDefaultWeightConfig } = require('./weight_config.js');
console.log(validateWeightConfig(getDefaultWeightConfig()));
"
```
