Findings by Severity
Categorizes scan findings into Critical, High, Medium, and Low.
Helps prioritize remediation by focusing on high-impact vulnerabilities first.
Example:
Critical (16) → Requires immediate action
High (20) → Address as priority
Medium (36) → Manageable but should not be ignored
Low (0) → Minimal impact, can be deprioritized
All / Fail Toggle
The All / Fail toggle allows users to control which findings are displayed in the Findings by Severity tile.
Toggle Options
All Displays all findings across each severity level (Critical, High, Medium, Low), regardless of result status.
Fail Displays only failed findings across each severity level.
Toggle Behavior
The toggle is located at the top-right of the Findings by Severity tile.
Switching between All and Fail updates the severity counts and progress bars accordingly.
Severity categories remain unchanged and continue to represent Critical, High, Medium, and Low.
This toggle helps users quickly switch between a complete overview and a focused view of failed findings requiring attention.
Interaction with Severity Selection
Clicking on any severity level (for example, Critical or High) redirects the user to the Browse Findings page, filtered by the selected severity level.
This functionality allows users to investigate findings in detail, understand associated risks, and take corrective measures.
In the Findings by Severity tile, click on a severity type (e.g., Critical, High, Medium, or Low).
The system automatically redirects to the Browse Findings page, displaying only the findings of the selected severity.
Key Features of Browse Findings Page
1. Filter Panel
At the top of the Browse Findings page, users can refine results further using filters:
Date Filter – Select a specific date or date range.
Severity Filter – Auto-applied from Dashboard (e.g., Critical). Users can adjust to include High, Medium, or Low if required.
Status Filter – Narrow down by compliance status (Pass/Fail).
Region Filter – Select a specific cloud or system region.
Service Filter – Filter findings by associated services (e.g., EC2, CloudWatch).
This allows precise investigation of findings relevant to business needs.
2. Findings Table
The table lists all findings that match the applied filters. Each record contains:
Sr. No. – Numerical index of the finding.
Details – A short description of the finding.
Title – The compliance or security check performed.
Status – Indicates whether the finding has passed or failed.
Severity – Displays the criticality (e.g., Critical, High, Medium, Low).
Service – Identifies the service associated with the finding (e.g., EC2, CloudWatch).
Region – Specifies the geographical or logical region of the resource.
Resource – The exact resource impacted (e.g., tacsecurity.com, AWS instance).
Example Workflow
From the Dashboard, a user notices 1430 Critical findings in the Findings by Severity tile.
The user clicks on Critical, and the system redirects to Browse Findings with Critical findings pre-filtered.
The user applies additional filters to focus on findings within “us-west-1” region and EC2 service.
The table displays only relevant entries, helping the user prioritize remediation actions.
"The same can be done for any type of severity"
Business Value
The Browse Findings page supports:
Quick drill-down into high-risk issues directly from the Dashboard.
Targeted filtering for efficient investigation.
A centralized view of vulnerabilities with contextual details.
Faster decision-making for compliance and risk management teams.
