Breeze-related Workflows

This section explains how Breeze Agent acts as the local execution and discovery layer for Cloudaware security modules.

Use these guides to understand how Cloudaware security modules use Breeze Agent data to extend visibility into hosts, validate coverage, and support operational workflows.

Vulnerability Management​

Use Vulnerability Management to understand how Breeze installs Nessus agents, collects software inventory, and helps identify hosts without vulnerability scanning coverage.

This guide covers:

  • Breeze capabilities: Installing Nessus agents and collecting OS, package, and software inventory.
  • Coverage and gap analysis: Identifying missing, unhealthy, or outdated scanning agents and mismatches between scan coverage and infrastructure.
  • Related integrations: Combining Breeze data with vulnerability scanners, security integrations, and CMDB context.

Patch Management​

Use Patch Management to understand how Breeze Agent supports patch assessment and outcome validation before and after patching cycles.

This guide covers:

  • Breeze capabilities: Reporting available package updates and collecting post-patch package, reboot, and OS build facts.
  • Patch outcomes validation: Validating patch outcomes and correlating patch status with OS facts and vulnerability exposure.

Intrusion Detection​

Use Intrusion Detection to understand how Breeze Agent participates in deploying and registering Wazuh agents, collecting host context, and helping identify IDS coverage gaps.

This guide covers:

  • Breeze capabilities: Deploying and registering Wazuh agents and collecting host identity, OS, service, and process data.
  • Coverage and gap analysis: Verifying IDS components, Wazuh agent health, monitoring status, and host coverage.

Unified Monitoring​

Use Unified Monitoring to understand how Breeze Agent supports monitoring-agent deployment, coverage validation, and alert correlation.

This guide covers:

  • Breeze capabilities: Deploying and detecting monitoring agents and collecting OS-level facts.
  • Coverage and gap analysis: Identifying unmonitored assets, stale metrics, and mismatches between monitoring configuration and actual infrastructure.
  • Related integrations: Using Breeze data with Cloudaware monitoring and network discovery integrations.
