How to Create/Modify a Policy for Auto-Suppression Action


Policies can be defined to include a suppress action, and the default/built-in policies are configured to suppress findings rather than drop them.

Users have the flexibility to customize auto-suppression settings based on specific criteria within their default/custom policy rules. For instance:

  1. Automatically Suppress All Stored Secrets with Low Confidence:

    • This ensures that sensitive information remains accessible for searching while minimizing user interruptions.
  2. Automatically Suppress All CVEs with CVSS < 6.0 (or EPSS < 0.01):

    • This automatically suppresses findings with lower severity scores, allowing users to focus on more critical issues.
