# Security finding categories

KSPM Graph displays security finding categories on every node in the graph. Each category can be enabled or disabled independently.

| Category          | Description                                                                                                                                                              |
| ----------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| Vulnerabilities   | Displays a severity histogram showing the distribution of Critical, High, Medium, and Low vulnerabilities detected in your container images and workload configurations. |
| Issues            | Highlights misconfigurations and policy violations detected by CIS Kubernetes Benchmark assessments and custom security policies.                                        |
| Malware           | Shows a count of malware detections identified through runtime analysis of container images and workload file systems.                                                   |
| Secrets           | Highlights exposed secrets, such as API keys, credentials, and certificates, detected in container images or workload environment variables.                             |
| Internet exposure | Provides a Boolean indicator identifying workloads and container images that are reachable from the public internet.                                                     |

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://cortex-docs.paloaltonetworks.com/kubernetes-security/kspm-graph/security-finding-categories.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
