Permissions file details
Clumio generates a permissions file based on the asset types selected when you manually on-board your AWS account to Clumio. The policies attached to each of the entities grant Clumio specific permissions to access your account and selected resources within it to protect your AWS assets.
The tables below contain the permissions that Clumio requires to perform an inventory of the selected assets and backup and restore operations. Based on your asset selections, you will see all of the following entities or a subset of them in the permissions file.

| Action(s) | Permission statement |
|---|---|
| ec2:CreateSnapshots ec2:CreateSnapshot | Required to take point in time snapshots of a given volume or instance for backup. The actions are allowed only if the operation has ClumioVendorTag in the request. |

During incremental backup, older snapshots taken by previous backups are deleted. - When a backup expires, snapshots associated with the backup(if any) are deleted.This action is allowed only if it is tagged with a ClumioVendorTag. |
| ec2:RegisterImage | Required to register an image of a given EC2 instance in aws_snapshot backup operations. This action is allowed on a snapshot only if it is tagged with ClumioVendorTag. |

ClumioEC2RestorePolicy
This is the Clumio Managed IAM policy for EBS and EC2 restore operations. Most of the policy statements used in ClumioEc2RestorePolicy use tag based conditions to provide access to the actions.
The following tags are used in the tag based conditions:
- ClumioVendorTag - Vendor: Clumio
This is a generic used to identify Clumio created resources in the customer account. - ClumioRestoreTag - clumio.restore.tag : "*"
During the process of EC2/EBS Restore, this particular tag is intermittently applied to the resources until the completion of the restore.
| Action(s) | Permission statement |
|---|---|
| ebs:StartSnapshot | A Clumio restore task invokes StartSnapshot to restore a snapshot with the following steps: - starts a snapshot - puts the snapshot data of the volume to be restored in the snapshot - completes the snapshot.Allow StartSnapshot action only if the request contains ClumioVendorTag. |
| ebs:CompleteSnapshot ebs:PutSnapshotBlock | Clumio restore task invokes CompleteSnapshot to restore a snapshot. Snapshot operations are allowed only on snapshots with ClumioVendorTag. |
| ec2:CreateSnapshots ec2:CreateSnapshot | Clumio restore uses CreateSnapshot(s) operations to generate an AMI of a restored instance/volume. Allow create snapshot with ClumioRestoreTag for volume restore. |
| ec2:CreateVolume | Clumio restore invokes CreateVolume to create a restored volume. Allow CreateVolume only if the operation request contains ClumioRestoreTag. |
| ec2:DeleteVolume | Clumio restore deletes the restored volume in case restore fails after the volume has been created. Allow DeleteVolume only if the volume is tagged with ClumioRestoreTag. |
| ec2:AttachVolume | Clumio restore attaches the restored volumes to the restored instance or the instance specified in EC2 restore volumes request. |
| ec2:DetachVolume ec2:AttachVolume | AttachVolume attaches an EBS volume to an EC2 instance. There is no condition for this operation. This is to facilitate the following: - Allow attaching a volume which was not restored by Clumio to a Clumio restored EC2 instance. - Allow attaching a Clumio restored volume to an EC2 instance which was not restored by Clumio.DetachVolume allows Clumio to detach a volume only from a Clumio restored EC2 instance. |
| ec2:RegisterImage | Clumio restore uses RegisterImage operation to create an AMI, in case of a restore as an AMI image. RegisterImage can be performed only on a Clumio restored snapshot. |
| ec2:DeregisterImage | Clumio restore de-registers the image if the restore operation has failed after the register image operation. DeregisterImage can be performed only on a Clumio restored snapshot. |
| ec2:RunInstances | Clumio restore uses run instance operation to launch a restored instance with the required resources. |
| ec2:StartInstances ec2:StopInstances ec2:TerminateInstances | Clumio restore performs instance based operations such as StartInstances, StopInstances and TerminateInstances at various steps in the instance restore task. Allow the listed instance operations on instances with ClumioRestoreTag. |
| ec2:DeleteNetworkInterface | Clumio restore deletes the network interface created while launching the restored instance in case restore failure after launching the instance. DeleteNetworkInterface is allowed only if the interface is tagged with ClumioRestoreTag. |
| ec2:AssociateAddress ec2:DisassociateAddress | Clumio restore associates addresses with the network interfaces after restoring the instance. If the restore fails after association of address to the network interfaces step, then the DisassociateAddress operation is performed. The AssociateAddress or DisassociateAddress operations are performed only on instances and network interfaces tagged with ClumioRestoreTag. |
| ec2:CreateTags | Clumio intends to create tags only on Clumio created resources so as to avoid extending Clumio Role’s access to other existing resources by allowing CreateTags operation. Deny direct CreateTags operation. Allow tag creation on listed resources only if they are associated with CreateAction operations other than CreateTags. Clumio creates images using the RegisterImage operation which does not support CreateTags as a dependent operation. Therefore, access to CreateTags is required by Clumio restore. Allow CreateTags operation only on an image only if one of the request tags is ClumioRestoreTag. |
| ec2:DeleteTags | DeleteTags is a delete operation which should be allowed only on resources which have been created by Clumio operations to avoid accidental deletion of tags. Allow Delete Tags on an image or snapshot only if the resource is tagged with ClumioRestoreTag. |
| iam:PassRole | Access for PassRole is required to attach an instance profile to the restored instance. |
| ebs:GetSnapshotBlock ebs:ListChangedBlocks ebs:ListSnapshotBlocks | Allow read operations on a given snapshot. Clumio restore uses these operations to read the data in a snapshot. |
| iam:GetInstanceProfile | Restore uses the GetInstanceProfile operation to validate the instance profile to be attached to the restored instance. |
| iam:GetRole | Restore uses GetRole operation to validate the given AWS role. |
| ec2:DescribeCapacityReservations ec2:DescribeAddresses ec2:DescribeNetworkInterfaces ec2:DescribeVpcs ec2:DescribeElasticGpus ec2:DescribeSubnets ec2:DescribeKeyPairs elastic-inference:DescribeAcceleratorOfferings elastic-inference:DescribeAccelerators | Restore uses the listed EC2 describe operations to validate the restored instances. |
