# Vulnerability Management

> Integrate Snapsec VM with AIM to sync vulnerability context and asset associations.

## Overview

The **Vulnerability Management Integration** allows AIM to automatically sync vulnerability information from Snapsec VM and enrich asset records with live security context.

Once enabled, assets inside AIM — such as IPs, domains, APIs, repositories, and applications — are automatically correlated with vulnerabilities discovered inside Snapsec VM.

Vulnerability Management Integration Overview

***

## What This Integration Does

* Pulls vulnerability metadata from Snapsec VM into AIM
* Links vulnerabilities with corresponding assets (IP, domain, repository, API, etc.)
* Updates severity counts, risk scores, and exposure status in real time
* Ensures asset records remain consistent with the VM module
* Enables unified investigation across asset and vulnerability views

AIM does not modify vulnerabilities — it **consumes** VM data to keep your asset inventory enriched and accurate.

***

## How to Enable the Integration

1. Go to **AIM → Integrations**
2. Locate **Vulnerability Management**
3. Click **Install / Configure**
4. Enter your **Snapsec API Key**
5. Save and enable the integration

AIM will immediately begin syncing vulnerability information associated with any asset.

Enable Vulnerability Management Integration

***

## Synced Data

AIM automatically retrieves:

* Vulnerability titles & descriptions
* Severity (Critical / High / Medium / Low / Info)
* Detection timestamps
* Affected assets
* Source scanner
* VM lifecycle state (Open, In Review, Resolved, etc.)

This enables AIM to compute accurate **asset-level risk**, **exposure**, and **security score**.

***

## Viewing Vulnerabilities in AIM

Once the integration is active, each asset page includes:

* Vulnerability count
* Severity breakdown
* Linked vulnerability list
* Quick navigation to the VM module

Asset Page With Vulnerability Data

***

## Sync Behavior

* Sync is **continuous** and automatically updates when:
  * New vulnerabilities appear in VM
  * Vulnerabilities change state
  * Resolved vulnerabilities are closed
* No manual refresh is required
* AIM only reads data — it does not modify VM records

***

## Troubleshooting

* **No vulnerabilities appearing:**\
  Ensure the same assets exist in both AIM and VM.
* **API key invalid:**\
  Regenerate and re-enter your Snapsec VM API key.
* **Stale data:**\
  Check integration status under **AIM → Integrations → Vulnerability Management**.
