    Vulnerabilities

    The Vulnerabilities module provides a centralized view of security findings across your environment. It enables teams to track, manage, and remediate vulnerabilities identified through automated integrations, imported reports, and manual entries.
    Organizations can assign ownership, collaborate through activity logs, and monitor remediation performance using TTR (Time to Remediate) metrics based on severity.

    Who can use this feature?
    All Account Owners, Security Admins and End Users
    Available on the Free, Core and Business plans

    Key Features#

    Centralized Tracking
    View and manage vulnerabilities from integrations, imports, and manual entries in one place.
    Import Findings
    Upload vulnerability reports from tools like Burp, Nessus, and ZAP.
    Manual Creation
    Create vulnerabilities manually for findings not captured by integrations.
    Team Collaboration
    Assign vulnerabilities and collaborate using activity logs and comments.
    TTR Configuration
    Define remediation timelines based on severity to track performance.

    Troubleshooting#

    Vulnerability Import Fails
    If a report fails to import:
    Ensure the file format matches supported types (Burp, Nessus, or ZAP)
    Verify the file is a valid .xml report
    Check file size limits (e.g., max upload size)
    If issues persist, validate the report structure from the source tool
