Checking the last applied compliance level and profile

You can check the last compliance level or profile that was applied to one or more endpoints in a selected group.

Tip: To schedule regular checks, see Scheduling a compliance check.
  1. From the main page, select the Compliance tab. The Compliance page opens.
  2. From the Groups tray, select the group that includes the endpoints for which you want to check the compliance levels and profiles.
  3. All the endpoints for a selected group are displayed in the compliance table. You can filter the endpoints that are displayed by using the Filtering by text text box. Enter the text that you want to filter by in the text box and press Enter. The list of endpoints from the selected group is dynamically filtered to show only rows that contain your text.
  4. Click the Show/Hide Table Columns icon to show or hide the following columns:
    • OS
    • Last Applied Type
    • Apply Timestamp
    • Apply Passed
    • Apply Failed
    • Apply Status
    • Check Timestamp
    • Check Passed
    • Check Failed
    • Check Exempted
    • Check Status
    • Simulate Timestamp
    • Simulate Passed
    • Simulate Failed
    • Simulate Status
  5. To refresh the displayed status information, click Refresh Table. To set how frequently the display is automatically refreshed, click Refresh Interval.
  6. To sync the uiServer and uiAgents with the latest subproduct data without waiting, click Sync Endpoint and select an endpoint to sync. When a subproduct is removed, installed, started, or stopped, there can be a delay of up to several minutes before the change is reflected in the PowerSC GUI. The Sync Endpoint control performs an immediate sync. You can sync only one endpoint at a time.
  7. Select the associated check box for the endpoint system name for which you want to check for the last level or profile that was applied.
  8. Repeat step 7 for each endpoint in the group for which you want to check the compliance levels and profiles.
  9. Click the Apply/Check icon.
  10. The endpoint is checked to see whether the rules that are in the compliance level or profile can be applied. The endpoints are not updated. If any rules cannot be applied, it is considered that they fail when they are applied. If one or more rules fail, the endpoint is flagged, and the text Failed is displayed in the Failed Rules column.
  11. From the Failed Rules list for each flagged endpoint, you can view the message that indicates why the rule failed. You can adjust the rules that are applied by creating a custom profile.
