Scan Scheduling

You can run scans on demand or schedule them to run automatically. Scheduled scans ensure your security posture stays current without manual intervention.


Running an Instant Scan

Click New Scan from the Dashboard or Findings page header. In the Scan Now tab:

  1. Select a cloud provider from the dropdown
  2. Click Run Scan

The scan runs immediately across all resources in the selected provider. You can track its progress in Scan History.


Creating a Schedule

In the New Scan dialog, switch to the Schedule tab:

  1. Select a cloud provider from the dropdown
  2. Choose a frequency:
FrequencyAdditional Options

WeeklyDay of week + time
MonthlyDay of month (1–31) + time
  1. Set the run time — the schedule uses your local timezone (auto-detected)
  2. Click Create Schedule
info

Each cloud provider can have one active schedule. Creating a new schedule for a provider replaces the existing one.


Managing Schedules

When a provider has an active schedule, the dialog shows its details:

  • Frequency and day (if weekly/monthly)
  • Next scheduled run
  • Timezone
  • Created date

You can Edit the schedule to change frequency, day, or time, or Delete it to stop automatic scans.


Scan History

The Scan History page shows a log of all scans — both manual and scheduled:

ColumnDescription

ResultsSummary — e.g., "12 failed, 340 passed, 352 total"
Initiated byUser who triggered the scan (or "Scheduled" for automatic scans)

Click any Completed scan to view its results in the Dashboard. Scans that are still in progress or have failed are not navigable.
