Checks are rules designed to detect anomalies within an instance. Select a check on the list to view details including what the check evaluates, and possible steps to correct the issue if the check returns any findings.
Select the +Create task button to create a Security Task related to a scan check. For details on Security Tasks, see Security Tasks.
Checks are divided into four classes to identify issues and implement security recommendations for your organization: table checks, column type checks, script only checks, and linter checks.
| Check class | Description |
|---|---|
| Table checks | Use this check class when you know the specific tables and checks you want to test. |
| Column checks | Use this check class to implement the rule you created to iterate all records matching the target column field type. |
| Script checks | Use this check class to verify meta data, configurations, and execute complex checks by writing your own checks. |
| Linter checks | Use this check class to identify any issues in a script. When a linter check is run on a record, an abstract syntax tree for its code is generated which can be used to analyze issues with the code. |
