You have a VUL (Vulnerability) that has multiple VITs (Vulnerable Items) related/children to the Vulnerability. The reason for this parent/child is because this vulnerability can be on multiple servers, etc... in your environment. The VUL (Vulnerability) is not fully remediated until all VITs are closed/remediated.

In ServiceNow Vulnerability Response (VR), a Vulnerability Item (VIT) is typically created from a vulnerability detected on an asset by a scanner such as Tenable, Qualys, Rapid7, Wiz, etc.

The mapping works like this:

Scanner Finding
↓
Vulnerability Entry (Vulnerability Definition)
↓
Asset / CI
↓
Vulnerability Item (VIT)
