Cloudhook Integration
The Cloudhook integration automatically onboards locations present in various cloud environments into the Edgescan platform giving full visibility across your public cloud.
How does it work?
Provided credentials for a cloud environment, the integration will retrieve all public facing IPs and hostnames on an hourly basis. If the locations are not currently present on the platform then they will be onboarded. A location is considered onboarded when it has been added to a licenced asset and is setup for scanning.
A location can be added to a dedicated asset, where there is only one location attached to the asset, or a grouped asset, where there are multiple locations present.
If a location was previously onboarded but is no longer present in the cloud environment then scanning will be stopped and the location will be removed from Edgescan.
What is required?
Some configuration settings need to be agreed upon, and credentials for the specified cloud environments are required. Credentials differ for each environment. Everything else is handled by the integration.
How often does it update?
CloudHook runs hourly.
