Auditing a Cloud Account

To audit a cloud account:

  1. Go to Cloud Resources > Cloud Accounts.

  2. Select the name of the cloud account you wish to audit. The account’s information opens in a panel on the right.

  3. In the panel, click on the More icon (three dots) and select Audit Account.

  4. The Audit Report displays:

    • Status - Pass, Warning, or Fail.

If the audit fails, CoPilot sends out alert email and logs the event. In addition, CoPilot sends an alert email on behalf of any of the above condition failures reported by an account upon the first detection and subsequently every 24 hours until the problem is rectified.

  • Comment - Any comments about the account, especially if the audit failed.

  • Timestamp - The time and date of the audit.
