    CVSS V2 Score

    The vulnerabilities with the score greater than or equal to the configured CVSS V2 score is considered for the import of CVEs and creation of Vulnerable Item (VIT) records.

    The default value is set to 0.

    Auto-close Resolved VIs If the VIT record is set to resolved, it can be closed automatically if the CVE no longer appears in the API response from Microsoft Defender for IoT for that OT device.
    Wait days to reopen a Resolved VI When a VIT is resolved, it can take a while for Microsoft Defender for IoT to confirm if the vulnerability is resolved based on the OT device's communication in the network.

    Define the number of days to wait before reopening the resolved VIT when the NIDS cannot confirm it as Closed.
