Coming Soon - Assessments API Service

Available as Preview

We’re previewing this feature with selected Cloud One customers and will be looking forward to your feedback.

What is the Assessments API?

The Assessments service enables you to collect Assessments made by Cloud One on your cloud infrastructure. These assessments provide you guidance and appraisal on your infrastructure’s security posture, and progress towards achieving an ideal security best practice architecture.

You can use assessments data to build reports, or feed into SIEM, dashboarding tools, or task management tools.

The service will initially support assessments from Conformity and Workload Security with more assessments from all services to be added in the future based on customer demand.
