Start scanning Amazon Web Services (AWS) buckets with File Security Storage
When you add a region to File Security Storage, the scanner is automatically deployed
in the region. However, you need to turn on scanning in each bucket to allow the scanner
access to the files being uploaded to that bucket. When cannot is turned on, File
Security can scan that bucket. File Security cannot scan a bucket when the Status
is EventBridge off or Scanner not deployed.
Currently based on your stack version, the turn on/turn off scanning behavior is different:
- Before stack version 1.2.0, you need to turn on or turn off EventBridge to control whether the scanning is enable or not.
- After stack version 1.2.0, File Security Storage creates an S3 configuration bucket in your environment. File Security Storage uses the information in this configuration bucket to determine whether to scan a specific bucket or not. Every time you turn on scanning, File Security Storage enables EventBridge. However, if you turn off scanning, File Security Storage does not disable EventBridge, but rather saves the current scanning status in this configuration bucket.

Note.
Only buckets whose EventBridge has been enabled in the File Security Storage console
are scanned. Buckets whose EventBridge was enabled in the AWS console are not scanned
