# Suppression

Suppression helps you mark particular resources inside a rule to signal Resmo to ignore them. For example, if you have an S3 bucket or another resource you left intentionally public, you might suppress it inside a rule. This way, you will only see the resources that are not intentionally against your Resmo rule and needs closer investigation.

**Note:** If you add a reason to your suppression or suppression removal, your suppression will be visible in the rule activity by others.

### How to add a suppression

1. Log in to your Resmo account.
2. Navigate to the Rules page and select the rule you wish to suppress a resource from.
