Explore resources exempt from Insight findings
You can view and manage all created exemptions on the Exemptions page. Exemptions exclude a resource from being assessed by a specific Insight. Use exemptions for compliant resources that do not require further evaluation.
Want to create an exemption?
You can only create exemptions from the Insights library, the Misconfigurations page, or using Bots.
