This article lists how quickly each area of Cye Cloud Posture Solution reflects changes in your cloud environment, from inventory to findings.
Overview
Cye Cloud Posture Solution pulls data from your IaaS providers and refreshes each feature on its own schedule. Knowing the schedule tells you how soon a change in your cloud, such as a new EC2 instance or a change in activity, shows up in the console.
Near Real-Time Data: Inventory, Compliance Manager models, and Policy Manager suggestions reflect changes within about 10 to 15 minutes.
Scheduled Analysis: The IAMagnifier graph, compliance evaluations, and Findings refresh every four hours, and you can run compliance evaluation manually at any time.
Update frequency by feature
Update frequency by feature
Each feature refreshes on its own cadence.
Inventory: Updated shortly after the resource is updated in the IaaS provider. For example, newly created EC2 instances typically appear in the console about 15 minutes after they are created.
IAMagnifier: Uses a graph database model to analyze permissions. The graph model is updated every four hours by default.
Policy Manager (IAM policy suggestion): Policy suggestions are updated continuously. Changes in activity are generally reflected in the suggested policy within 10 minutes.
Compliance Manager: Compliance models are updated like inventory data, so changes from IaaS providers are reflected in compliance models within 15 minutes. Compliance is evaluated automatically every four hours. You can run the compliance evaluation manually from the UI or via the API at a higher frequency.
Findings: Updated every four hours.
Wrap-up / Next Steps
Wrap-up / Next Steps
Run compliance on demand: Open the Compliance Manager or use the API to evaluate compliance more often than the four-hour schedule.
Automate with the API: See GraphQL API to create an API key and trigger evaluations programmatically.
