batchUpdateFindings method

Future<BatchUpdateFindingsResponse> batchUpdateFindings({
  1. required List<AwsSecurityFindingIdentifier> findingIdentifiers,
  2. int? confidence,
  3. int? criticality,
  4. NoteUpdate? note,
  5. List<RelatedFinding>? relatedFindings,
  6. SeverityUpdate? severity,
  7. List<String>? types,
  8. Map<String, String>? userDefinedFields,
  9. VerificationState? verificationState,
  10. WorkflowUpdate? workflow,
})

Used by Security Hub customers to update information about their investigation into a finding. Requested by master accounts or member accounts. Master accounts can update findings for their account and their member accounts. Member accounts can update findings for their account.

Updates from BatchUpdateFindings do not affect the value of UpdatedAt for a finding.

Master and member accounts can use BatchUpdateFindings to update the following finding fields and objects.

  • Confidence
  • Criticality
  • Note
  • RelatedFindings
  • Severity
  • Types
  • UserDefinedFields
  • VerificationState
  • Workflow
You can configure IAM policies to restrict access to fields and field values. For example, you might not want member accounts to be able to suppress findings or change the finding severity. See Configuring access to BatchUpdateFindings in the AWS Security Hub User Guide.

May throw InternalException. May throw InvalidInputException. May throw LimitExceededException. May throw InvalidAccessException.

Parameter findingIdentifiers : The list of findings to update. BatchUpdateFindings can be used to update up to 100 findings at a time.

For each finding, the list provides the finding identifier and the ARN of the finding provider.

Parameter confidence : The updated value for the finding confidence. Confidence is defined as the likelihood that a finding accurately identifies the behavior or issue that it was intended to identify.

Confidence is scored on a 0-100 basis using a ratio scale, where 0 means zero percent confidence and 100 means 100 percent confidence.

Parameter criticality : The updated value for the level of importance assigned to the resources associated with the findings.

A score of 0 means that the underlying resources have no criticality, and a score of 100 is reserved for the most critical resources.

Parameter relatedFindings : A list of findings that are related to the updated findings.

Parameter severity : Used to update the finding severity.

Parameter types : One or more finding types in the format of namespace/category/classifier that classify a finding.

Valid namespace values are as follows.

  • Software and Configuration Checks
  • TTPs
  • Effects
  • Unusual Behaviors
  • Sensitive Data Identifications

Parameter userDefinedFields : A list of name/value string pairs associated with the finding. These are custom, user-defined fields added to a finding.

Parameter verificationState : Indicates the veracity of a finding.

The available values for VerificationState are as follows.

  • UNKNOWN – The default disposition of a security finding
  • TRUE_POSITIVE – The security finding is confirmed
  • FALSE_POSITIVE – The security finding was determined to be a false alarm
  • BENIGN_POSITIVE – A special case of TRUE_POSITIVE where the finding doesn't pose any threat, is expected, or both

Parameter workflow : Used to update the workflow status of a finding.

The workflow status indicates the progress of the investigation into the finding.
