Ungrouped Vulnerability Response vulnerable items

Vulnerable items are automatically assigned to a remediation task when they are imported. However, sometimes, if a vulnerable item (VI) is created manually, for example, the VI can become an orphan. The Ungrouped vulnerable item module lists those vulnerable items without a group.

Remarque :

Integration automated processes do not create orphans, so this use case is expected to be small.

Being ungrouped occurs if a vulnerable item was created without a vulnerability, or there is no remediation task rule that assigns the VI to a group.

In that case, review the list of ungrouped vulnerable items by navigating to All > Vulnerability Response > Vulnerable items > Ungrouped.

After review, your choices are as follows:

• You can Create or edit Vulnerability Response remediation task rules to catch any items that appear on this list.
• You can Manually create a remediation task in Vulnerability Response and manually add items from this list to the group or define a condition that matches these items.
• You can open an existing remediation task and add any relevant vulnerable items to the group as long as it is in the Open or Under Investigation state.

Remarque :

Manually added vulnerable items are not automatically removed from remediation tasks by remediation task rules or group conditions.
