Discovery¶
Discovery is an important component of Valtix's approach of "Discover, Deploy and Defend".
Discovery provides real-time visibility into the current resources deployed in any onboarded Cloud accounts. In addition, it provides an interface into VPC Flow Logs and DNS Logs to give a complete picture of your cloud deployment. The Valtix Controller, through the permissions granted to the IAM role (AWS), AD app registration (Azure) or the service account (GCP), periodically crawls your cloud resources, and also keeps tab on the changes, to maintain an "evergreen" inventory model of the resources.
Using Discovery, you have the ability to see the attributes of your resources and how they are interconnected. Valtix collates this information into a succinct view of the security posture of all your resources with respect to the configuration and with context to the traffic flows.
