info:
name: CloudWatch Alarms Actions Enabled
author: princechaddha
severity: high
description: |
Ensure that all Amazon CloudWatch alarms have actions enabled (ActionEnabled: true) to respond to state changes.
impact: |
Without actions enabled, CloudWatch alarms cannot perform automated actions in response to state changes, potentially missing critical alerts.
remediation: |
Enable actions for each CloudWatch alarm by setting the ActionEnabled parameter to true, allowing for automated responses to alarms.
