Service Overview
Config Inspection is a service that diagnoses the security level of console settings for each service of Samsung Cloud Platform. It provides a security checklist organized by areas such as IAM, Networking, Database, Logging, and checks the current status via API calls to see whether the recommended security settings for each diagnostic item are applied.
Users can create a diagnostic target through service creation and then request a diagnosis, and the diagnosis request results can be checked via the Report. The Report provides the diagnosis request history and item-specific diagnosis results, and for diagnostic items that require the user’s final confirmation or action, detailed results including the resource information corresponding to each item and a remedial guide can be viewed.
