Assessment overview with live remediation and status counters

​
Overview

An Assessment aggregates everything for one security engagement — status, trends, ownership, evidence, and reporting.
Use the top header to see In Review/In Progress/Resolved, duplicates, retests, staging fixes, members, and overall progress.
Below, charts expose Vulnerability Trends, Open/Close Severity Distribution, Severity mix, and Top 5 vulnerabilities for quick triage.

Live charts for trends and distributions inside an assessment

Assessment Metrics provides a real-time overview of an assessment’s progress and health. It visualizes key data such as total vulnerabilities, remediation status, and severity distribution — helping teams quickly understand how many issues are open, resolved, or pending re-test. The page’s purpose is to track remediation effectiveness, analyze vulnerability trends, and measure progress within a specific assessment, ensuring every test leads to measurable security improvement.

Status & Progress

Snapshot of state chips and a progress bar (e.g., Resolved 17 of 23). Great for stand-ups and executive updates.

Trends & Quality

Line/bar/donut charts show discovery vs. closure, open/close by severity, and overall severity distribution.

​
Managing Assessments

The Basic Details tab allows you to edit key configuration details of your assessment and manage its overall lifecycle.
You can update the assessment name, modify category or scope, assign ticket owners, and manage collaborators — keeping your engagement organized and up to date.

​
Updating Name or Category

Collaborators section showing team member management in the assessment panel

Add or remove collaborators from the assessment

Edit the Assessment Name, Date, or Category fields directly from the form.
These updates automatically sync across related dashboards, ensuring consistent labeling and visibility for reports, trends, and performance metrics.
Renaming an assessment does not affect linked vulnerabilities or reports — all associated data remains intact.

​
Adding or Removing Collaborators

Collaborators section showing team member management in the assessment panel

Add or remove collaborators from the assessment

Use the Collaborators panel to invite or remove team members.
Collaborators can view vulnerabilities, upload evidence, and contribute to custom reports — enabling shared visibility and accountability.

​
Updating Assessment State

Add or remove collaborators from the assessment

Control your assessment’s status through three lifecycle options:

Start Assessment

Begin active testing. Findings and evidence tracking start automatically.

Pause Assessment

Temporarily stop testing while preserving current data and progress.

Complete Assessment

Finalize your testing, generate reports, and mark the engagement as closed.

​
CSV Import (optional)

CSV Import modal with file upload and markdown-like mapping example

Import vulnerabilities from external scanners via CSV template

1

Open Import

Click Import CSV from the Basic Details actions.
2

Upload file

Attach your scanner export (10MB max). Use our template headers to map title, summary, impact, etc.
3

Validate & Import

Review the preview and confirm — findings are linked to this assessment automatically.

​
Assessment Evidences

Empty evidences state with upload button and illustration

Centralized repository for screenshots, logs, and proofs

  • Upload screenshots, PoCs, logs, and recordings.
  • Tag evidence to specific vulnerabilities or keep it assessment-level for methodology and scope proofs.

​
Custom Report tab

Custom Report builder with fields for title, author, reviewers, executive summary, scope, methodology, conclusion

Generate executive-ready reports from structured fields

  • Export
  • Traceability
Export to PDF/Doc as needed; the report stays linked to assessment evidence and findings.

​
Why this matters

  • Single source of truth: metrics → configuration → evidence → report, all in one place.
  • Speed with control: import external scanner data, validate, and report without losing context.
  • Audit-ready: collaborators, access levels, and report fields provide clear governance.
