Integration for Policy Compliance
By integrating PC with AWS S3 Bucket, you can get posture data of your asset inventory directly on your AWS S3 Bucket in near real-time without running any API calls or generating any compliance reports. CIPS (Cloud Integration Partner Service) proactively retrieves the posture data from Qualys Policy Compliance and transfers it to AWS S3 Bucket.
Currently, this integration is supported only for Policy Compliance (PC) and not for SCA subscriptions.

- Permissions: The API Access permission must be enabled for your account.
- Role: You must have the Manager or Unit Manager role.
