The Discovery History section provides three types of historical information:

  • Run History: Display the execution history of Discovery jobs

  • Detection History: Allow tracking of changes in the detected results over time

  • Verification History: Provide a history of the administrator’s review of the results

Run History Detailed Information

  • Detection Profiles : List the names of detection profiles associated with the job.

  • Connections : List the names of connections mapped to the job, and the progress of each connection's scan is displayed as a bar graph.

  • Running Details : Provide detailed logs of the job execution. If a failure occurs, the logs help identify the cause and guide corrective actions. It also shows who initiated the job when run manually.

Detection History

When sensitive information is discovered, it is recorded in the Detection History.

In the Detection History, to view the detected items, the verification action (Accept / False Positive) in the Scan results must be performed first.

Detection History Detailed Information

  • Detection Profiles : List the names of detection profiles associated with the job.

  • Sensitive Items Samples : Display five samples of the discovered sensitive information.

Verification History

Since the process involves Automatic Detection → Human Judgment → Tagging Only Confirmed True Positives in Inventory, the administrator must verify whether the sensitive information found in the Scan Results is a true positive or a false positive. No matter how accurate the AI classifier is or how well the regular expressions are crafted, it's impossible to eliminate false positives entirely with current technology. Therefore, the administrator reviews the scan results, accepts the correct findings, and marks the incorrect ones as False Positive. The administrator's decisions are then recorded in the Verification History.
