## Summary of Fortify Vulnerability Integration

The Fortify Vulnerability Integration enables ServiceNow customers to import and utilize vulnerability data from the Fortify product.
This integration helps determine the impact and priority of code flaws by enriching your existing vulnerability data within the ServiceNow Application Vulnerability Response feature.
It automates synchronization between ServiceNow and Fortify, supporting effective vulnerability management and remediation.

## Key Features

* **Automated Data Import:** Scheduled jobs run daily to import scanner data, scan summaries, and scan results from Fortify, maintaining up-to-date vulnerability information.
* **Chained Scheduled Jobs:** Integrations are executed in sequence through chained scheduled jobs, with options to run individual jobs manually for flexibility.
* **Preconfigured Run-As User:** Uses a designated run-as user (default is VR.System) to maintain secure and consistent integration operations---this value should not be changed.
* **Integration Components:**
  * *Fortify on Demand Application List Integration:* Retrieves application scanner data daily and enriches third-party application information (active by default).
  * *Fortify on Demand Scan Summary Integration:* Retrieves scan records; runs after the Application List Integration (inactive by default).
  * *Fortify on Demand Application Vulnerable Item Integration:* Retrieves detailed scan results, inserts Application Vulnerable Item Tables (AVITs), and updates existing AVITs if scanner records are not closed (inactive by default).
* **Performance Monitoring:** Starting with version 2.3, detailed metrics such as processing times and integration run reports are available for the Application Vulnerable Item integration.
* **Version Compatibility:** Choose integration versions according to your upgrade plans---versions 30.x and above are compatible with Unified Security Exposure Management (USEM), while versions below 30.x are for environments not migrating to USEM.

## Practical Benefits

* Maintains synchronization of vulnerability data between Fortify and ServiceNow, ensuring accurate and current vulnerability insights.
* Improves vulnerability prioritization and response workflows by enriching third-party vulnerability data with Fortify scanner results.
* Automates data imports and reduces manual effort in tracking and managing application vulnerabilities.
* Supports seamless integration configuration and operation through scheduled jobs and a secure run-as user setup.  
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. |
