• Click the ellipsis menu next to a check and select Edit check.

Compliance Check Actions

On Compliance > All Compliance Checks, the ellipsis menu next to each check includes the options:

• Rescan. Immediately run the check again.
• View findings. See compliance findings for the check. For more information, see What is a Finding?
• Clone. Create a new check using the current one as a template. For more information, see Add a Compliance Check.
• Delete. Delete the check.
• View check details page. See information including the check details, activity feed, findings, standards it is a part of, and projects and accounts where it is applied. For more information, see Compliance Check Details.
• Resume. If a check has been suspended, it means the check has failed multiple times and is no longer being scanned. Selecting Resume removes the suspended status, so that the check will attempt to resume scans.

2. Click the name of the standard you want to add a check to.
3. Select the Compliance Checks tab.
4. Click Add.
5. Select whether you would like to create a new check and automatically add it to the standard or if you would like to add an existing check.
