Chapter 4. Analyzing and triaging your compliance reports

The compliance service displays data for each policy and system registered (and reporting data) to the service. This can be a lot of data, most of which might not be relevant to your immediate goals.

The following sections discuss ways to refine the bulk of compliance service data—​in Reports, SCAP policies, and Systems—​to focus on the systems or policies that matter the most to you.

The compliance service enables users to set filters on lists of systems, rules, and policies. Like other Red Hat Lightspeed services, the compliance service also enables filtering by system-group tags. However, because compliance-registered systems use a different reporting mechanism, the tag filters must be set directly in lists of systems in the compliance UI views, rather than from the global, Filter by status dropdown used elsewhere in the Red Hat Lightspeed application.
