Findings tab

Preview

The Findings tab provides a resource-level view of individual compliance assessments. You can use it to investigate specific resources and filter findings across a selected time range.

Browse findings

The Findings tab shows

  • A time-series chart of findings over the selected time range, colored by status (Failed, Manual, Passed)
  • A data table of individual findings with the following columns:
  • Status
  • Severity
  • Title
  • Resource name
  • Resource type

Use the following controls to navigate:

  • Time range (top right): Set the time window for displayed findings (for example, Last 2 hours).
  • Split by (above the chart): Select the attribute by which the chart groups findings (for example, by Status).
  • Show chart: Toggle the time-series chart on or off.
  • Group by (above the table): Group findings in the table by a selected attribute.

Filter findings

Use the facet panel on the left to filter findings:

  • Status: Filter by assessment result — Passed, Manual, or Failed.
  • Severity: Filter by severity level — Critical, High, Medium, or Low.
  • Product name: Filter by the name of the product that generated the finding.
  • Product vendor: Filter by the vendor of the product.
  • K8s cluster: Filter by Kubernetes cluster.
  • K8s namespace: Filter by Kubernetes namespace.

You can also use the filter bar at the top to add attribute-based filters (for example, "Resource type" = KUBERNETES_DEPLOYMENT).

Filters can be combined. Select a finding to open the detail panel.
