Security Findings

  • Last updated on

Navigate to the Security Findings page to view all of your resources with associated security findings. This page includes resources that have either passed or failed controls in your security policies.

By contrast, the Security Risks page shows only those resources that have failed conditions in your policies.

Security Findings Sources

Information on this page is sourced from the Barracuda Compliance Scanner. Azure Security Center alerts and AWS Security Hub findings are also periodically retrieved. As described below, use the Source filter on this page to select one or more information sources. When viewing the Finding Details, click a link to go to the source where the risk was found.  

For more information, refer to the following resources:

Reviewing Findings

By default, information on this page is sorted by date, so the most recently-observed data is at the top. 

You can take the following actions on the table to find and display data:

  • Click a column to sort by it.
  • Click Columns to show or hide columns on this page
  • Click Export JSON to export the data, based on your current filters. 

Findings for resources that no longer exist in your public cloud are hidden 24 hours after the resources have been removed.

Filtering Findings

Use the filters at the top of the page to choose certain values you want to include in the table on this page. This information on filtering applies to the Security Risks and Security Findings pages.

  • Use the Search field to find a control title or description. 
  • Select specific settings in other search fields. Select All to select everything in that menu. Select None to clear all of the selections in that menu. 
  • After you make your selection for each field, either tab to the next field or click elsewhere on the screen to apply your section to the table. 

  • Sharing between pages – The filter settings you choose are shared between the Security Risks and Security Findings pages. When you switch between these pages, your filter settings are automatically applied. You can alter the filter settings or remove all filters by clicking Clear Filters. 
  • Bookmarking your filters – When you have set the filters you want to use, create a bookmark in your browser. When you open that bookmark, your filters are automatically applied. 
  • Sharing with a colleague – To share your filter settings with an colleague who has access to your account, copy the URL in the address bar of your browser and share it. When your colleague opens the link you sent, they will see that page with the same filters you selected.

Note: Some resources, like Secrets and Keys within KeyVault, do not use Azure role-based access control (Azure RBAC) and must provide access to the Barracuda Cloud Security Guardian scanner separately so they can be scanned. If you do not provide this access, these resources cannot be scanned and they will not appear in the Security Findings or Security Risks pages. For more information, refer to the Azure documentation for Azure RBAC.
