## Summary of Fortify Vulnerability Integration

The Fortify Vulnerability Integration enables ServiceNow customers to import and utilize vulnerability data from the Fortify product within the ServiceNow AI Platform®.
This integration enhances the Application Vulnerability Response feature by mapping and enriching third-party vulnerability data, helping you assess the impact and prioritize code flaws effectively.
Show full answer Show less  
The integration operates through scheduled jobs that run automatically each day, ensuring your ServiceNow instance stays synchronized with Fortify vulnerability data and other vulnerability management systems. Each integration uses a configured run-as user (default: **VR.System**), which should not be changed.

## Key Features

* **Automated Data Import:** Scheduled jobs retrieve scanner data, scan summaries, and detailed vulnerability items from Fortify.
* **Chained Integrations:** Integrations run in sequence---starting with application lists, followed by scan summaries, and then vulnerable item data---to maintain data consistency and completeness.
* **Data Enrichment:** Fortify data enriches third-party application and vulnerability records within your ServiceNow instance.
* **Integration Run Monitoring:** From version 2.3, detailed processing metrics and reports are available to monitor the Application Vulnerable Item integration runs.
* **Manual Execution:** Scheduled jobs can be triggered manually as needed for immediate synchronization.
* **Default Activation:** The Fortify on Demand Application List Integration is active by default; other integrations are inactive by default but can be enabled based on your requirements.

## Practical Use and Benefits

By implementing the Fortify Vulnerability Integration, ServiceNow customers can:

* Automate the import and correlation of Fortify vulnerability data with existing vulnerability response workflows.
* Maintain up-to-date vulnerability information without manual intervention, streamlining remediation efforts.
* Gain enhanced visibility into application vulnerabilities through enriched and mapped data.
* Utilize integration reports and statuses to track data import success and troubleshoot issues.

## How to Access and Manage the Integration

Navigate to **Fortify Vulnerability Integration \> Integrations** in your ServiceNow instance to view and manage available integrations. You can activate or deactivate integrations based on your environment and execute scheduled jobs manually if needed.  
The Fortify Vulnerability Integration uses data imported from the Fortify product to help you determine the impact and priority of flaws in your
code.

## Fortify Vulnerability Integration {#fortify-vuln-integration__section_l13_1kz_thb}

The Fortify product collects scanner data and makes that data available to
the ServiceNow AI Platform®. It easily integrates with the ServiceNow®
Application Vulnerability Response feature of Vulnerability Response to map
third-party vulnerabilities enriching the data in your instance.

There is a configured run-as user for each integration record. The default value for this
user is VR.System. Do not change this value.

Every day, scheduled jobs invoke the integrations automatically. Once all the integrations
are activated, they are chained to run in sequence. You can also execute individual
scheduled jobs manually. Scheduled jobs simplify the vulnerability remediation life cycle by
keeping the instance synchronized with other vulnerability management systems.

## Fortify Vulnerability Integration {#fortify-vuln-integration__section_ift_yxh_x1b}

To view the Fortify Vulnerability Integration, navigate to Fortify Vulnerability IntegrationIntegrations.

The following integrations are included in the base system. These integrations are not all
active by default.

After the initial run, every day, scheduled jobs are chained to run the integrations
automatically in order. You can also execute individual scheduled jobs manually. Scheduled
jobs simplify the vulnerability remediation life cycle by keeping the instance synchronized
with other vulnerability management systems.  
{#fortify-vuln-integration__table_sbn_qlp_dt__entry__2}

| Integration | Description |
|-|-|
| Fortify on Demand Application List Integration | Retrieves Fortify application scanner data (vulnerabilities, metadata) and enriches your third-party application data. This integration is set to run daily at 00:00:00. It is active by default. |
| Fortify on Demand Scan Summary Integration | Retrieves scan records from Fortify. This integration is chained to run following the Fortify on Demand Application List Integration when activated. It is inactive, by default. |
| Fortify on Demand Application Vulnerable Item Integration | Retrieves scan results from Fortify, inserts AVITs, and enriches your third-party vulnerability data. If the scanner record is in the Closed state, AVITs are not created. Existing AVITs are still updated. Starting with v2.3, view details such as total processing times, average times for pre- and post-integration run processes, and reports on the integration run records for the Application Vulnerable Item integration. This integration is chained to run following the Fortify on Demand Scan Summary Integration when activated. It is inactive, by default. |
