The following table provides a brief description of the default groups available. To add, update, or delete a custom defined dynamic group or a pre-configured group, you must have Entity View and Entity Manage permissions.
Dynamic Group | Description |
---|---|
Type of Entity | Groups by Type and Subtype. |
By Criticality | Groups all entities based on the business criticality score. The score is the average of the user defined CIAA rating (Classification > Security Requirements > confidentiality, integrity, availability, and accountability). |
By Operating System | Groups computers and network devices by operating system settings (Entity Details > System Details). |
By Subnet | Groups computer and network devices by the specific interface subnet range. The range is calculated using the subnet mask set on the System Details > Network > Network Interface details panel. If the subnet mask is null, the device will display in the top level folder only, even if the IP address is within a recognized range. Overlapping ranges are grouped separately. |
All Vendors | Lists all vendor type entities. |
All Processes and Objectives | Lists all process type entities for use with ERM risk assessments and calculations. |
Active Directory | Groups domain entity types. Entities are automatically structured when using the AD Connector to import Active Directory data |
My Entities | Lists all entities the current user is assigned to as any type of owner. User access is also limited by the filters assigned to their user profile and roles. |
Recently Viewed | Lists the last ten entities the current user has viewed. The maximum number of entities can be configured in the Recently Viewed group of the .properties file. |
My Favorites | Entities you identified as a favorite on the entity's detail page. |
Newly Discovered Entities | Groups discovered entities (an entity with the General > Entity Management > Status of Discovered) by operating system, network subnet, and entity type. When a connector finds a new entity and imports the details, the entity status is set to Discovered. |
Unmanaged Entities | Lists unmanaged entitites (an entity with the General > Entity Management > Status of Unmanaged). Many of the default groups are filtered by Managed status. They only show entities that have the Managed status. |
