CSV Reports
When a scan completes, ADG generates:
- A Scan Report
- An optional Shared Password Report (if that scan option was selected)
These reports can be emailed to administrators and are also written to the file system.
✉️ Email Delivery
- Both reports can be attached to Scan Completion Emails.
- They are delivered in CSV format.

📁 Report Folder for Automation
CSV reports are saved locally in:
C:\ProgramData\SpyCloud\AD Guardian\7\Reports
- Filenames are timestamped for traceability.
- Naming conventions:
- Scan Report_YYYYMMDD_<ScanID>.csv
- Shared Password Report_YYYYMMDD_<ScanID>.csv
 
You will not see a Shared Password Report if that option was not selected during the scan.
🔗 Integration & Automation
These CSV files are ideal for automation pipelines. They can be ingested by:
- SIEM tools (e.g., Splunk, Sentinel)
- Log analytics platforms
- SOAR workflows
Once ingested, you can:
- Open support tickets automatically
- Generate incidents
- Launch playbooks to remediate matches
