# Tagging Amazon Inspector resources
<a name="tagging-resources"></a>

 A tag is a label you add to an AWS resource. Tags help you categorize AWS resources based on specific criteria. Tags consist of a key-value pair. The tag key is a general label. The tag value is a description of the tag key. With Amazon Inspector, you can tag [suppression rules](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/inspector/latest/user/findings-managing-supression-rules.html) and [CIS scan configurations](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/inspector/latest/user/scanning-cis-create-cis-scan-configuration.html). You can add as many as 50 tags to each of your Amazon Inspector resources.
