Viewing portfolio security reports

Your SonarQube Cloud porfolio's security reports page provides an aggregated view of security ratings across projects in the portfolio.

This feature is only available in the Enterprise plan.

Before you can view the Enterprise-level reports, your organization must be added to an enterprise. For more information, see Managing your enterprise.

Overview

Portfolio security reports provide an aggregated view of your organization’s security across multiple projects. They are aimed at enterprise security teams, compliance and audit teams, and IT administrators who manage multiple projects and require an in-depth view of their enterprise security status.

You can view security reports for any portfolio that contains projects that have previously undergone an analysis. For a given standard, the report displays the number of raised Security issues and Security Hotspots by security category.

To ensure reliable security reports, the relevant security rules must be activated in your portfolio’s project quality profiles. For instance, if no rule corresponding to a given OWASP category is activated in your quality profile, you won’t get Security issues or Security Hotspots linked to that specific category in the OWASP report. See Checking the security rules included in a project’s quality profile for more information.
