Every vendor in this category will show you what their system fixed. This is the other half. A refusal is a decision with a reason attached, produced at the moment the system stopped, and it is the one thing here that cannot be copied by a competitor without admitting their tool has no way to stop.
01 · The finding
Six S3 buckets return the identical finding at the identical severity.
02 · Usage
One is unused, safe to remove.
03 · Traffic
Two serve only HTTPS, safe to enforce.
04 · Dependents
One carries live traffic, thus refused with the evidence handed back.
05 · The owner
Ownership could not be resolved, so nothing was touched and the missing context was requested.
06 · Three answers
Some findings get fixed through your own change process, and the rescan comes back clean. Some get refused, and you get the reason.
The finding as your scanner reported it, with its severity and rule, and the other findings that share the same cause, so one decision can cover all of them.
What Tamnoon read in your environment before deciding: traffic, usage, dependencies, ownership, and recent changes. Read-only, and only the facts the decision rested on.
The system that would have broken if the fix had run, named. When a fix was technically safe and still refused, the record says why it needed a person.
Why the fix was refused, in one sentence that someone outside the security team can read.
When the decision was made. It is recorded before anything goes to approval, so an auditor can see the order of events.
Not a score, not a priority, not another ticket. A decision with the reasoning attached, that your engineer can read at 3am and your auditor can read at any time.
Fixed through your own change process. The rescan came back clean.
Refused, and you get the reason why.
Held until a person answers. Ownership could not be resolved, so nothing was touched and the missing context was requested.
A refusal only means something if it came from your environment. Pick the scanner whose findings you want judged.
