Cloud Status Information

Each Cloud Overview page includes high-level status information including:

  • Cloud Type (icon)
  • Cloud Name
  • Harvesting status (active/inactive)
  • Harvesting permissions (has all permissions/permissions missing). Note: If harvesting is missing specific permissions an active link provides access to missing permissions details
  • For Cloud accounts that contain missing permissions, clicking on the active text opens a module with details about each individual missing permission/ associated resource.
  • Account Details
    • Account Number associated with the selected Cloud Account
    • Payer ID & email associated with the Cloud Account (AWS-Only)

Missing Permissions

Customers using AWS, GCP, or Microsoft Azure get visibility on missing permissions for their installation. You can identify what permissions are missing and what the impact of those missing permissions has on visibility into that cloud account. Permission issues prevent harvesting and data retrieval of your cloud resources.

  • This data refreshes every two hours. If you've recently made changes to your cloud permissions for this account, please check back in two hours.
  • Note: For AWS accounts there may be Service Control Policies that disable some resources.

Harvest Info

The "Harvest Info" tab from the overview page of the individual cloud provides details (e.g., resource type, region, etc.) from the last known harvest. This is useful in understanding when a particular resource was last harvested, failures and context, the next scheduled harvest, or when a Bot action was last run.

Cloud Settings - Items to Note

Permissions
For all of the actions outlined below, appropriate permissions are required. If you are not able to view certain details or make changes, reach out to your administrator or contact us via the Customer Support Portal.

Removing Cloud Accounts
Removing a cloud account from InsightCloudSec does not remove or delete the cloud itself from the cloud service provider.

Removing a cloud account from InsightCloudSec does remove the ability to provide you with complete and accurate visibility into your cloud operations.

Organization Child Accounts
This page will look slightly different (with certain aspects being locked down) for accounts that are part of a Cloud Organization.

  • Updating the Account information
  • Configuring Billing information (which also including configuration of a billing bucket for AWS or GCP)
  • Updating the EKS Scanner Role associated with the account for Kubernetes Security Guardrails
  • Removing a Cloud Account
  • Assign Harvesting Strategy
  • Setting Custom Properties
    • With appropriate permissions, you can view and add custom properties to your cloud account. These can be used as metadata or to otherwise extend the functionality of your work within InsightCloudSec.

Configuring a Billing Bucket (Currently AWS Only)

The Billing Bucket Configuration pane is at the bottom of the Settings page for the individually selected Cloud.

For AWS accounts, your system administrator can configure the billing bucket for the selected cloud account. Billing information will be pulled from this location periodically.

This feature is currently only available for AWS.

APIs (GCP-Only)

For GCP-based Cloud accounts, an additional tab is available that displays all the GCP APIs that InsightCloudSec uses with details on their status (enabled or disabled). Check out the content we have on Projects for (GCP) for additional details on configuration.

Auto-Enabling APIs

You can activate API Auto-Enablement if you want InsightCloudSec to automatically enable and harvest from every API, but this requires you to manually enable the Service Usage API.

In general, we do not recommended auto-enabling; InsightCloudSec recommends only enabling APIs that you use for performance, cost, and security benefits.
