1. ### [Archive and audit security action items](https://developers.cloudflare.com/changelog/post/2026-04-27-archive-and-audit-security-action-items/)  
[ Security Overview ](https://developers.cloudflare.com/security/overview/)  
#### Archive and audit security action items  
Introducing enhanced archiving capabilities for security action items within the Security Overview dashboard. This update allows security teams to maintain a cleaner workspace by removing resolved, accepted, or irrelevant items from their active list while maintaining a clear paper trail for compliance.  
---  
#### Why this matters  
Managing a high volume of security insights can be overwhelming. Previously, users lacked a structured way to dismiss items without losing the context of why they were ignored.  
With these new archiving options—**False Positive**, **Accept Risk**, and **Other**—you can now suppress items indefinitely with required rationale text for risk-based decisions. This ensures that your team remains focused on critical, actionable vulnerabilities while preserving institutional knowledge for audits.  
#### Key features  
   * **Structured Archiving:** Choose from specific categories to define why an action item is being moved.  
   * **Required Rationale:** For "Accept Risk" and "Other" categories, users must provide documentation, ensuring accountability for security decisions.  
   * **Audit Log Transparency:** New API endpoints allow you to programmatically retrieve the history of status changes and rationale for any insight at the account or zone level.  
   * **Reversible Actions:** Any archived item can be moved back to the active list at any time if the security context changes.  
Note  
Archiving a suspicious activity item will remove it from the Security Overview page, but the activity will remain visible in your Security Analytics dashboard for deeper forensic analysis.  
---  
#### Example: Retrieve audit logs via API  
To review the history and rationale of a specific archived issue at the account level, you can use the following API command:  
Terminal window  
```  
curl "[https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/](https://api.cloudflare.com/client/v4/accounts/){account_id}/insights/{insight_id}/audit-log" \  
     -H "Authorization: Bearer <API_TOKEN>" \  
     -H "Content-Type: application/json"  
```

[ Security Overview ](https://developers.cloudflare.com/security/overview/)  
The Security Overview has been updated to provide Application Security customers with more actionable insights and a clearer view of their security posture.  
Key improvements include:  
   * **Criticality for all Insights**: Every insight now includes a criticality rating, allowing you to prioritize the most impactful security action items first.  
   * **Detection Tools Section**: A new section displays the security detection tools available to you, indicating which are currently enabled and which can be activated to strengthen your defenses.  
   * **Industry Peer Comparison** (Enterprise customers): A new module from Security Reports benchmarks your security posture against industry peers, highlighting relative strengths and areas for improvement.
