- What if we reached the AWS service Limits and will the scan continue to run if this happens?
If the service limit is reached during the scan process, the scanning will fail, return an error and instruct the client to get their service limits increased. we will pause the scanning process till the customer notifies us about the revised service limits. we will then resume the scanning functionality.

B. Cloud Xray #
- What is Cloud xray?
Cloud Xray is an optional & advance feature (deployable module) provided by Cloudnosys to be able to scan your Servers & EC2 instances for Malwares and OS vulnerabilities.
- Where is my sensitive data stored?
Cloud Xray will store the client’s sensitive data on the Redis server, temporarily and encrypted at rest. This data will be held for scanning purposes when it’s triggered. Once the scanning is completed, the results will be shown on Cloudnosys dashboard, and the stored data will be removed completely.
- Do I need to keep any of my resources “Public”?
No. We DO NOT make any of your resources “Public” in your Cloud account.
- Do I need to perform the software upgrades?
When the updates are available you will be notified on the Cloudnosys Platform & email. In case of Architectural modifications, you will be asked to re-deploy the stack set but in the case of virus definition updates, it will be done automatically.
- How can I check and monitor the health and proper function of my application?
To make sure that the application is functioning normally, following steps can be taken:
- You will receive email and platform system notification if there’s an issue detected in the system
- You can check logs (AWS/Azure/GCP) for any errors generated by Cloudnosys deployed resources
- Check to see if the last scanned date is NOT older than expected
- Do I need to perform backups of any Datastore or configurations?
Cloud Xray (AWS Deployable module) will NOT ask you to backup any configuration or datastore, and in case of any malfunction, you can just re-deploy the stack set using the provided CFT and you will be all set to go.
- How does the software patches and upgrade works?
Cloud xray is required to be redeployed via CFT when there is an architectural change. For that cloudnosys team will notify you and provide an updated CFT with instructions. Other components within cloud xray such as virus definitions are auto updated through trusted sources.
