Identify and escalate security issues using NVD

When Common Vulnerability and Exposures identifier (CVE-ID) records are downloaded from the National Vulnerability Database (NVD), they are compared to the software in your company network as identified by the Software Asset discovery model. When a CVE-ID matches vulnerable software or configuration item in your network, a vulnerable item is created. You use the information in the CVE-ID record to decide whether to escalate the vulnerable item for remediation.

Persona and granular roles are available to help you manage what users and groups can see and do in the Vulnerability Response application. For an initial assignment of the persona roles in Setup Assistant, see Assign the Vulnerability Response persona roles using Setup Assistant. For more information about managing granular roles, see Manage persona and granular roles for Vulnerability Response.
