monitor

Security posture monitoring evaluates control policies across endpoints, users, and network devices. You can query security inventory, assess compliance, manage exceptions, and generate reports to continuously track your organization's security posture.

Evaluating security control policies lets you assess compliance across your assets. You can define and manage exclusions for specific resources or policies, creating tailored exceptions that accommodate operational needs without compromising overall monitoring.

Querying security inventory and generating compliance reports requires a configured Prelude account with valid credentials. You also need Prelude CLI v2.6 or later to execute posture evaluation commands and monitor partner integrations.

Monitoring partner integrations tracks the status and health of connected security controls. By querying your security inventory through the CLI, you can verify integration connectivity and ensure all endpoints, users, and network devices report correctly.

Listing endpoints for security monitoring queries your inventory to return the first 10 devices. Using the CLI, you can retrieve detailed information about endpoints, users, and network devices to assess your current security posture.

Policy evaluation results depend on connected security controls and partner integration health. Incomplete results often indicate missing credentials, outdated CLI versions, or unconfigured integrations that prevent full inventory queries across all network devices.
