Executive Summary Dashboard: Vulnerability Variation Panel

This article provides an overview of the information displayed in the Vulnerability Variation panel.

Vulnerability Variation Panel

The Vulnerability Variation panel displays the following metrics:

• The main metric of this panel represented by a positive or negative number is the delta in number of newly discovered vulnerabilities versus fixed vulnerabilities as detected by Secureworks® Taegis™ VDR in your organization, over the selected time frame. Vulnerabilities do not need to have been sent to a Remediation Plan to be detected as having been fixed.

• The upper right corner of the panel shows how many vulnerabilities have been newly discovered and how many vulnerabilities have been fixed over the selected time frame.

• The main graph visually shows the evolution over the selected time frame of the vulnerability count, with red bars on the upper portion of the graph showing the newly discovered vulnerabilities, and green bars in the lower portion of the graph showing the fixed vulnerabilities.
