Run the Patch Vulnerability by Patch Family Chart
This chart shows a breakdown of the number of open patch vulnerabilities per patch family count. You can specify the types of vulnerabilities by severity to make the chart more specific.
Where the Data Comes From
This data is an accumulation of all patch scans uploaded into the system package area. It parses *.nessus
credential patch scan results (or uncredentialed if allowed in System Package Preferences), Rapid7 Nexpose .xml
patch scan results, or the .json
generic patch vulnerability results and separates out all the plugin (patch) data and parses it to put into the patch scan database. It comes back sorted by severity (critical, then high, then medium, then low, then informational) so you can quickly see the impact and risk associated with all the patch data in the system package.
As you upload patch scan results it adds new plugin data, updates older ones, and updates the patch data score.
