Vulnerability findings

Rapid Vulnerability Detection, Security Health Analytics, and Web Security Scanner detectors generate vulnerability findings that are available in Security Command Center. When they are enabled in Security Command Center, integrated services, like VM Manager, also generate vulnerability findings.

Your ability to view and edit findings is determined by the Identity and Access Management (IAM) roles and permissions you are assigned. For more information about IAM roles in Security Command Center, see Access control.

Detectors and compliance

Most of Security Command Center's detectors are mapped to one or more of the following compliance standards:

• Center for Information Security (CIS) Google Cloud Computing Foundations Benchmark v1.3.0, v1.2.0, v1.1.0, and v1.0.0
• Payment Card Industry Data Security Standard 3.2.1
• National Institute of Standards and Technology 800-53
• International Organization for Standardization 27001
• Open Web Application Security Project (OWASP) Top Ten

CIS reviewed and certified the mappings of Security Command Center detectors to each supported version of the CIS Google Cloud Foundations Benchmark. Additional compliance mappings are included for reference purposes only.

Security Command Center frequently adds support for new benchmark versions and standards. Older versions of the CIS Benchmark remain supported, but are eventually deprecated. We recommend that you use the latest supported benchmark available.

For instructions on viewing and exporting compliance reports, see the Compliance section in Using Security Command Center in the Google Cloud console.

Finding deactivation after remediation

After you remediate a vulnerability or misconfiguration finding, the Security Command Center service that detected the finding automatically sets the state of the finding to INACTIVE the next time the detection service scans for the finding. How long Security Command Center takes to set a remediated finding to INACTIVE depends on the schedule of the scan that detects the finding.

The Security Command Center services also set the state of a vulnerability or misconfiguration finding to INACTIVE when a scan detects that the resource that is affected by the finding is deleted.

For more information about scan intervals, see the following topics:

• Security Health Analytics scan types
• Rapid Vulnerability Detection scan latency and interval
• Web Security Scanner scan types

Security Health Analytics findings

Security Health Analytics detectors monitor a subset of resources from Cloud Asset Inventory (CAI), receiving notifications of resource and Identity and Access Management (IAM) policy changes. Some detectors retrieve data by directly calling Google Cloud APIs, as indicated in tables later on this page.

For more information about Security Health Analytics, scan schedules, and the Security Health Analytics support for both built-in and custom module detectors, see Overview of Security Health Analytics.

The following tables describe Security Health Analytics detectors, the assets and compliance standards they support, the settings they use for scans, and the finding types they generate. You can filter findings by various attributes by using the Security Command Center Vulnerabilities page in the Google Cloud console.

For instructions on fixing issues and protecting your resources, see Remediating Security Health Analytics findings.
