Reports in CSPM provide a pass/fail score percentage for a selected mandate against resources in a cloud environment. Mandates are made up of controls that your environment is evaluated against. The accumulation of these pass/fail metrics is delivered as the report.

Users can click on the name of the report to view the report details page which contains the results of the environment scan. Depending on the mandate selected for that report, the details will be displayed and should look something like the below:

The report summary section at the top contains:

• Pass/Fail rate with the number of resources associated.
• Controls - This is how many total controls are part of this report.
• Policies - This is how many policies the selected mandate contains.
• Requirements - Total number of requirements as part of the mandate.
• Evaluations - Total number of resources in the cloud environment that were evaluated.

At the bottom of the report details are options to export the report to CSV or PDF.

Here all the requirements for the mandate selected when creating the report are visible. The report will display the Pass/Fail percentages at each level as the requirements and sub-requirements are expanded. At the lowest level the individual controls that make up the requirements are shown as displayed below:

At this level the control id is on the left and the pass rates for each individual control are on the right as well as how many resources were evaluated for that control. Under each control there are two links: Remediation and Advanced Query.

Remediation Remediation

Remediation

For each control, there are remediation steps and the resources that were examined for that particular control. Following the remediation steps for each resource that did not pass will allow that control to become a pass after the report is run again.

The Remediation link will open up additional tabs in a sidebar where you can get the remediation steps and resources for the control as shown below:

Resources

The Resources tab shows only the resources that have been evaluated per the mandate chosen for a report. Mandates test against specific controls, so if a resource is not in scope for a control, it will not appear in the Resources tab. In other words, the Resources tab is not a table of all a customer's assets, but rather a list of those assets that have been included in a report.

Due to the large volume of data for resources, it can take a while for the data to populate even after the report has been run and has results. Shown below, by clicking on the Export button resources can be exported to CSV.

By clicking on the resource name, details for the resource can be seen as shown below:
