This upgrade involves segmenting the job into several smaller child jobs, which are executed either in parallel or concurrently. This modification enables processing of multiple records simultaneously, thus significantly speeding up the overall task. for Container Vulnerability Response After upgrades and deployments of new applications or integrations, run quick start tests to verify that Container Vulnerability Response works as expected. If you customized Container Vulnerability Response, copy the quick start tests and configure them for your customizations. Vulnerability Response Prisma Registry Integration Now you can ingest the static image findings obtained from the Prisma registry scan into the ServiceNow Container Vulnerability Response.
Yokohama	Enhancements to the Vulnerability Manager and IT Remediation workspaces starting with version 2.13 The Unassign workflow is supported for container vulnerable items (CVITs) and remediation tasks (CVULs). Streamline vulnerability assignments in the workspaces with the Unassign UI action from the more actions menu on a CVIT. Reassign incorrectly assigned CVITs, clarify ownership for reassessment, and maintain accurate triage records in workspace views. You have the option to send unassign requests for approval prior to clearing the Assigned to and Assignment group fields on records. [Placeholder link text to key cvr-assignment-rules]. You can use the following values imported from the Prisma Cloud Compute integration as conditions when you create or update your assignment rules to help you track ownership across your container environments. Cloud account IDs Image namespaces Registry Hosts Labels Status - Vendor status for a resolved (Fixed) vulnerability Create container remediation tasks manually in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace With the sn_vul_container.vulnerability_analyst or sn_vul_container.vulnerability_admin role, you can create container remediation tasks manually by selecting some or all the records in the Container vulnerable items lists in the Vulnerability Manager Workspace. These records are grouped into one or more remediation tasks according to the grouping criteria selected while creating container remediation tasks. Create container remediation tasks manually in the IT Remediation Workspace With the role sn_vul_container.remediation_owner, you can create container remediation tasks manually by selecting some or all the records in the Container vulnerable items’ lists in the IT Remediation Workspace. These records are grouped into one or more remediation tasks according to the grouping criteria selected while creating container remediation tasks. Configure container vulnerable items (CVITs) granularity using Registry and data source Starting with v2.12.2 of Container Vulnerability Response, you can configure the granularity of container vulnerable items (CVITs) using Registry information and data sources. Depending on the chosen data source, you can view either image or kubernetes information related to a CVIT record. Additional columns in the container vulnerable items (CVITs) table Starting with v2.12.2 of Container Vulnerability Response, you can see the precise date and time when a CVIT was first discovered, last opened, resolved, and last found, ensuring clarity and accounting for different time zones. View risk score details of a container vulnerable item in the Work Notes section Starting with v2.12.2 of Container Vulnerability Response, the system property sn_sec_cmn.risk_score_changes_add_worknotes is inactive by default.

Zurich	Enhancements to the Vulnerability Response Integration with Wiz The image repository name format for new and existing discovered container images has been updated to align with the discovery format. The supported format is registry/repository. A separate finding is created for a repository present in each registry. Appended all repositories that are associated with an image to the Repository field on the discovered container image records. Added the source_id column to the Container Image Finding table (sn_vul_container_image_findings) and mapped the id attribute from the Wiz import to this field on findings records. The default integration instance parameter for configuring finding keys for the Container Vulnerability Integration includes src_ci, vulnerability, package, image_layer, and image_repository. Enhancements to the Vulnerability Response Integration with Wiz The Missing Assets [sn_vul_wiz_missing_asset] is deprecated. After updating to version 1.1, you must backdate your existing primary Wiz integrations by three days and run them. The backfill integrations are activated by default. After you run them after updating to v1.1, the following backfill integrations are no longer required: Host Vulnerability Backfill Integration Test Results Backfill Integration Host Test Results Backfill Integration Issues Backfill Integration Data for resources that have the validated_at_runtime flag set to 'yes' is imported and populated on detections. The CMDB internet-facing field on the discovered item is mapped to Limited Internet Exposure on findings. Fix information that includes 'Fix available', 'Partial fix available', 'No fix available', and 'Fix version' from the [fix_available] and [fix_version] columns is rolled up to CVITs from findings. Note: If there are two or more findings on a CVIT, the fixed version might only apply to one. In that case, 'Partial fix available' is rolled up to the CVIT. The Wiz vendor severity attribute is mapped to the 'Source severity' column on findings records in the Container Image Findings [sn_vul_container_image_findings] table. The cluster and namespace is evaluated for all the following entity Types: DEPLOYMENT, DAEMON_SET, STATEFUL_SET, POD. Import container vulnerability data with the Vulnerability Response Integration with Wiz Import configuration test results from Wiz to detect non-compliant cloud configurations. Findings are mapped to cloud test results (CTRs) in the Configuration Compliance application to help you enforce security policies and standards across your cloud environment. Enhancements to imported scanner results Enhancements support more scanner data on imports. Namespaces and hierarchy cluster are considered and populated in the discovered container image [sn_vul_container_image] table if this data is imported.
