Integrate Policy Compliance 

By integrating PC with Azure Blob Storage, you can get posture data of your asset inventory directly on your Azure Blob Storage 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 Azure Blob Storage.

Currently, this integration is supported only for Policy Compliance (PC) and not for SCA subscriptions.

Prerequisites

The following are the prerequisites to integrate the Qualys Policy compliance application with Azure Storage Blob:

  • You must have a storage account with the necessary permissions. 
  • The CIPS service must be enabled for your subscription. Qualys Support enables it for your account. Contact the Qualys Support team for the integration process.
  • Qualys applications: You must have enabled Policy Compliance (PC) and Cloud Agent (CA) for your subscription.
  • Permissions: The API Access permission must be enabled for your account.
  • Role: You must have the Manager or Unit Manager role.
  • Platform version: You must be on Qualys Enterprise TruRisk™ Platform version QWEB-10.21.1.0 or later.
