How to Use One-Click Remediation

How to Use One-Click Remediation

Prerequisites

  • A security finding or vulnerability that needs remediation
  • Access to ZIN Copilot
  • Appropriate access to the target systems (for executing commands)

  • How One-Click Remediation Works

  • ZIN identifies a security issue (from integrations, scans, or manual input).
  • ZIN analyzes the issue context — what system, what technology, what configuration.
  • ZIN generates the specific remediation command(s) tailored to your environment.
  • You review and execute the command.

  • Using One-Click Remediation

    Navigation: Sidebar → ZIN Copilot (or from any Finding/Insight detail)

    Step 1: Identify the Issue

  • Navigate to a vulnerability finding, proactive insight, or risk item.
  • Alternatively, ask ZIN directly: "How do I fix [specific issue]?"
  • Step 2: Request Remediation

  • Click the Remediate button (if available on the finding), or
  • Ask ZIN: "Generate remediation commands for this vulnerability"
  • ZIN generates one or more remediation options.
  • Step 3: Review the Generated Command

    ZIN provides commands in formats relevant to your environment:

    FormatUse Case
    CLI CommandsDirect terminal commands (AWS CLI, Azure CLI, kubectl, etc.)
    TerraformInfrastructure-as-code changes for cloud resources
    ConfigurationConfig file changes (nginx, Apache, security groups)
    ScriptsMulti-step remediation scripts

    Example output:

    # Fix: Disable public access on S3 bucket

    aws s3api put-public-access-block \

    --bucket your-bucket-name \

    --public-access-block-configuration \

    BlockPublicAcls=true,IgnorePublicAcls=true,BlockPublicPolicy=true,RestrictPublicBuckets=true

    Step 4: Execute

  • Review the command carefully to understand what it will do.
  • Execute in your target environment (terminal, CI/CD pipeline, or Terraform).
  • Verify the fix was applied successfully.
  • > Warning: Always review generated commands before executing. While ZIN generates accurate commands, it is your responsibility to verify they are appropriate for your specific environment and will not cause unintended side effects.


    Safety Best Practices

    PracticeWhy
    Always review before executingCommands may affect production systems
    Test in staging firstValidate the fix in a non-production environment
    Check for dependenciesSome fixes may require service restarts or downstream changes
    Document what you didKeep an audit trail of remediation actions
    Verify after executionConfirm the vulnerability is actually resolved

    Troubleshooting

    IssueSolution
    ZIN says "Cannot generate remediation"The issue may not have a standard automated fix. Manual investigation required.
    Generated command doesn't workVerify your access permissions to the target system. Check that the environment matches what ZIN assumed.
    Command seems incorrect for my environmentProvide more context to ZIN: "Generate remediation for [issue] on [specific system/version]".
    One-click option not availableThis feature is available for common vulnerability types. Complex or novel issues may require manual remediation.
