Bulk edit in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace

In the Vulnerability Manager Workspace, the bulk edit feature enables you to update multiple vulnerable items (VITs, AVITs, or CVITs) or configuration test results (TRs) simultaneously, streamlining the management and remediation process.

With bulk edit, you can select multiple vulnerabilities and apply consistent changes, such as assigning remediation owners, updating status, adding work notes, requesting exceptions, and requesting false positive. This saves time and effort by eliminating the need to edit vulnerable items individually, promoting efficient and consistent management of vulnerabilities.

The bulk edit feature is available for:

• host vulnerable items (VITs) starting from v21.0 of Vulnerability Response.
• application vulnerable items (AVITs) and container vulnerable items (CVITs) starting from v22.0 of Vulnerability Response.
• test results (TRs) starting from v23.0 of Vulnerability Response.

Roles required:

• sn_vul.vulnerability_analyst, or sn_vul.vulnerability_admin for host vulnerable items (VITs)
• sn_vul.app_sec_manager for application vulnerable items (AVITs)
• sn_vul_container.vulnerability_analyst or sn_vul_container.vulnerability_admin for container vulnerable items (CVITs)
• sn_vulc.admin for configuration test results (CTRs)

You can perform the following tasks using the bulk edit feature in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace:

• Assign records to an assignment group in bulk
• Request bulk exception in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace
• Remove assignments for host vulnerable items in bulk
• Bulk edit for false positive in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace
• Close records in bulk in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace
