4.6 Tags - VulnDetect Technical Guide
Tags Overview
On the Tags page, you can create and manage Tags used to organize and filter hosts.
Unlike groups, a host can be assigned to multiple Tags.
Tags provide flexible classification and allow hosts to be organized independently of their group assignement.
While groups represent a host's primary structural classification, Tags are used for cross-cutting or operational categorization.
Tags are commonly used to:
- Apply targeted operational actions such as deployment of jobs and approvals.
- Providing additional control over software updates.
For example:
- A host may belong to the Servers group
- The same host may have Tags such as:
- Production
- Remove Java
- Finance
- Legacy System
The Tags page displays a list of Tags, more concretely displays:
- Tag name of the Tag
- Approvals number of how many hosts are assigned to the Tag.
- Hosts how many hosts are assigned to the Tag.
- Installations how many applications have been installed.
- Ok number of Installations with no known vulnerabilities.
- Insecure number of Installations with known vulnerabilities.
