Tasks an Auditor Performs

Code Insight 6.14.2

An auditor has the job of analyzing evidence but not performing Intellectual Property (IP) compliance and vulnerability problem-solving actions. The general auditing and analysis steps are as follows:

1. Setting up the workspaces to scan codebases for third-party materials
2. Scheduling scans and reports
3. Launching Detector
4. Viewing scan and reports in the task queue
5. Viewing reports
6. Choosing the workspaces to open and analyze
7. Opening and accessing scan results
8. Viewing different types of evidence (for example, source code fingerprint matches, exact files [digest] matches, copyright matches, license matches, string search term matches, Java name matches, etc.)
9. Organizing and viewing the codebase scan evidence
10. Analyzing the codebase scan evidence and constructing groups and components to represent detected inventory
11. Publishing groups as inventory
12. Managing a catalog of custom Open Source Software (OSS) material

A general view of the auditor workflow is presented in the following diagram. If the scan is not providing you with the information you are seeking, you can re-configure the workspace and schedule a new scan to analyze.
