Abstract

Track the active security services deployed across your environment.

Navigate to Inventory > All Assets > Security Services > All Security Services Assets to access a complete, centralized overview of the security services being actively managed within your organization.

A Security Service Asset is a specific class of asset within the inventory that represents the actual security configurations, policies, and managed services deployed to protect your cloud environment. Rather than representing the infrastructure that needs protection, such as a compute instance or storage bucket, these assets represent the mechanisms doing the protecting. Examples of these assets include cloud-native security controls like AWS KMS Key Rotation Status and Google Binary Authorization Policy. Cortex XSIAM tracks these assets to provide a complete, centralized overview of the security services being actively managed within your environment, ensuring your defensive infrastructure remains active, properly configured, and uncompromised.

You can review these assets to ensure your core security mechanisms are functioning correctly and have not been tampered with. Because these assets are continuously enriched with posture and threat data, you can quickly identify, prioritize, and resolve active threats or misconfigurations directly impacting your managed security services. For example, if an encryption key rotation policy is disabled or a binary authorization policy is misconfigured, you can view a direct breakdown of any related cases, issues, and findings tied to that specific security service to immediately remediate the gap in your defenses.
