Tag Management - Overview

Tags are useful for purposes such as organizing Targets/Assets for reporting, policy management, Role-Based Access Control, and other operations within the console. This topic describes how to create, view, search, and manage Tags.

Overview

  • Tags are useful for purposes such as organizing Targets/Assets for reporting, policy management, Role-Based Access Control, and other operations within the console.
  • Bulk actions can be performed on Assets which are grouped within a single Tag.
    • See "Data Assets and Targets - Bulk Actions"
Note: An Asset can be both an Asset and a Target. For example, a single workstation acts as both an Asset and a Target (the workstation is scanned for sensitive data by Spirion Sensitive Data Platform).

Tag Types

  • IP Range: Includes Agents and Targets based on an IP range.
  • Manual: Includes Agents and Targets manually added to your tag.
  • Conditional: Includes Agents and Targets captured by a set of user-defined parameters.

Tag Examples

  • The Tag Marketing Laptops is a IP Range type Tag that includes a hundred employee laptops (associated machines)
  • The Tag HR Databases is a manual type Tag that includes databases used by the HR department.
    • For example: Oracle_holiday, SQL1, and MayDay2025
  • The Tag Cloud Sources is a manual type Tag that includes targets in the cloud.
    • For example: Box2021, S3_dev1, and GitHub2025
  • The Tag "macOS" is a Conditional type Tag that captures targets (desktops, laptops, etc.) using the macOS operating system. See the image below:
