Tell me about the Individual Host Compliance Report

The Individual Host Compliance interactive report shows you the compliance status for a particular host. Interactive reports are not saved to your reports list.

Policy Audit Interactive Reports are not supported in SCA only subscriptions. PA is required to run these reports.

How do I do it?

Sample Policy Summary page with link for Individual Host Report

New Interactive Report menu option under Reports

What's in my report

Tell me about the results

Each control from the policy that is applicable to the host is listed with control details and posture. Click on any row in the Results to see specific scan results and evidence for the control, including the Expected value (set in the policy) and the Actual value (returned by the most recent scan) for the control on the host.

Tell me about compliance status (posture )

Possible values are:

Passed - The expected value for the control matches the actual value returned during the last compliance scan on the host. 

Failed - The expected value for the control does not match the actual value returned during the last compliance scan on the host.

PassedE - The host is exempt from the control. This means that an exception was requested and accepted for the control on the host.

Error - An error occurred during control evaluation on the host.

Reporting options in user defined control settings allow you to ignore errors and show a different status

How to request exceptions

Select the Request link in the Exception column for a single host that requires an exception. To include multiple hosts in your request, select the check box next to each host in the results and then click the Request Exception at the top of the report. You need to assign the exceptions to a user and provide comments.

What does Deprecated Control Icon mean?

This appears next to deprecated controls. A workflow is provided in the Policy Editor for replacing deprecated controls.

How to show/hide the Setup Pane and Preview Pane

Select the Setup Pane option from the View menu to choose another host to report on or change report settings. You can also show/hide the Preview Pane.

Did you run your report from the Policy Summary?

You can go back to the Policy Summary at any time to choose a different host to report on. Note that you will not have the option to change report settings from within the report or view the Setup Pane.
