What it does
Turns on enrichment of assets with data from your CMDB export (CMDB id, name, criticality, data sensitivity).
When enabled
When on and a CMDB.csv is present, profiling runs refresh the CMDB cache and stamp CMDB fields onto matched assets; CMDB ids in custom rules take effect. When off, they are ignored. In SecurityInsight Pro the services come from the CMDB in the Pro database (the CMDB page) instead of a file; a v2.2 CMDB.csv is moved there once by setup, and a CMDB.csv left on disk is not read (the run warns when the Pro CMDB is empty and a CSV was never moved).
When disabled
CMDB data is not used
Risk and how to reverse it
Affects what SecurityInsight writes to your CMDB or ticketing systems. Reversible for future runs, but changes already written there stay; the connector's own guards hold large or unsafe changes.
Requires
Nothing else.
Recommended
Keep the default. Change it when: Turn on when you have a CMDB export (or, in Pro, services on the CMDB page) you want reflected in reports.
