Risk scan

You can anytime choose to run on demand risk scan tasks on selected endpoints, as follows:

  1. Go to the Network page.

  2. Browse the containers from the left-side pane and select the endpoints you want to scan.

  3. Click the task.png Tasks button at the upper side of the table and choose Risk scan.

    A configuration page will appear, where you need to select the indicators taken into account for risk scanning.

    Note

    An Indicator of Risk refers to a registry key value or data of a specific system setting.

  4. Select the indicators of risk you want to take into account for scanning.

    Indicators of risk are grouped by the following attributes:

    • Category (Network, Operating System)

    • Severity (Misconfiguration, Microsoft Security Baseline)

    By default, only a certain number of indicators are selected. You may need to review the list of indicators you want to include for scanning.

    You can also use the search bar to find specific indicators. Note that risk indicator names include terms from local or group policy names. To view the full list of indicators and their description, refer to GravityZone Indicators of Risk.

  5. Click Save to create the scan task. A confirmation message will appear.
