The FireTail event system is a way of recording the creation, deletion and modification of resources from cloud providers such as AWS API Gateways, as well as resources in the FireTail SaaS platform such as collections, new collection versions, and a periodic analysis performed on API traffic.
Events are created when:
- New resources are added.
- Resources are deleted.
- Resources are changed.
Events enable the discovery of Findings. The events are processed and any findings contained within the event are generated.
The events pages enables you to view all events that have occurred and any associated findings within that event.
Navigate to Posture management in the FireTail platform and select the Events tab to view the created events.
When viewing the events you can choose grid view or list view. Toggle between grid and list to change the view.
- Title - The title of the event. For example; Collection version changed.
