Use Security
Review configuration posture, verified controls, exposure and supported remediation.
Outcome
Prioritize real security gaps instead of treating every observation as equal risk.

Complete guide to Use Security
When you do this
Use Security during a posture review, after AXORIK reports a security finding or before proving that required network controls are present.
What this means
Security combines verified configuration controls, important events and actionable gaps. It separates a missing or degraded control from informational activity so the response matches the actual risk.
Before you start
- Select the correct site and confirm monitoring and security analysis are current.
- Know which networks contain staff, guests, IoT, cameras and management devices.
- Have approval before changing firewall, isolation or access policies.
Do this step by step
- 1Read Security posture to see verified, degraded and missing controls.
- 2Open Needs attention before informational observations.
- 3Read each Security finding for the affected device, network, policy and practical risk.
- 4Use Security events for time and activity context without treating volume alone as severity.
- 5Open Supported remediation only when the scope and impact are understood.
How to know it worked
The finding shows a verified resolution or a documented accepted risk, and the affected control is rechecked with current evidence.
If it does not work
- If a control is Unknown, refresh the evidence or verify that the connected controller exposes the required data.
- If events appear without a finding, they may be contextual observations rather than a configuration failure.
- If remediation is unavailable, follow the manual guidance or escalate to an authorized operator.
Important
A green device state does not prove security posture, and a stale security check is not a pass.
What you will see on this page
These are the exact AXORIK sections to look for. Read them in the order shown unless the complete guide directs you to a specific finding.
Security posture
Summarizes verified, degraded and missing network controls.
Security findings
Explains the affected device, network or policy and the practical risk.
Security events
Shows analyzed activity and important event context when evidence is available.
Supported remediation
Opens a reviewed change with scope, safeguards and verification.
Recommended workflow
Follow these steps in order. If a step is blocked, resolve it before moving to the next one.
Check evidence freshness
Confirm that monitoring and security analysis are current.
Start with needs attention
Open verified gaps before informational observations.
Confirm scope
Read the affected segment, device, policy and latest evidence.
Choose the smallest response
Use a supported fix that reduces risk without unrelated change.
Safety and interpretation
- A stale security check is not a pass.
- Event volume alone does not measure risk.
- Review impact before remediation.
