Overview Qualys Flow

Qualys Flow is a low-code/no-code cloud management platform that can help you to create customized workflows named QFlows within a few clicks.  

A QFlow is a logical flow of events, data, and actions to get a specific output like an insight, a compliance check, a report, remediation, or an action. Qualys Flow helps in the automation of the cloud management process. You can build a QFlow using different nodes. Nodes are building blocks of a QFlow. Each node is used to perform a specific function such as collect AWS Inventory, AWS  Action, data formatting etc. You can choose the specific node to perform the desired function.

With Qualys Flow, you can create

  • a runtime custom control for AWS in the TotalCloud application.

  • automation (QFlows) to achieve specific/use case-based requirements without the knowledge of scripts.  

  • a Security Orchestration Automation and Response (SOAR) playbook with QFlow.

For example, the resource node decides which data should be fetched for modification, and the action node decides what action to take on selected data.
