Purpose
This article describes the Report Library function in the Common Portal.
Introduction
The Report Library in the Outpost24 Common Portal serves as a centralized repository for storing and managing reports generated from asset-based vulnerability and compliance assessments, offering a streamlined way to access detailed security insights. It enables users to organize reports—available in formats like PDF, Excel, XML, and others, with optional password-protected ZIP compression—through tag-based filtering and customizable table or grid views that persist across sessions. Security teams can upload new reports in various file types, such as XLSX, DOCX, or CSV, and download them for analysis or sharing, ensuring efficient data handling and secure delivery. By providing a structured interface for report management, the Report Library enhances visibility into vulnerabilities and compliance issues, supports compliance requirements, and facilitates informed decision-making for maintaining a secure infrastructure.
