View Vulnerability Dashboard

This chapter details the functionality of the Vulnerability dashboard in Cisco Secure Workload, which identifies and displays Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) across workloads to prioritize remediation efforts.

The Vulnerability dashboard lists known CVEs by severity using scoring systems such as the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) and Cisco Security Risk Score. These scores help prioritize vulnerabilities that require immediate attention. Users can filter CVEs based on various attributes like exploit complexity and access requirements. The dashboard updates CVE data every 24 hours from trusted sources like NIST and Microsoft. It allows users to create inventory filters, configure microsegmentation policies, and generate virtual patching rules to mitigate risks associated with identified vulnerabilities.

The Vulnerability dashboard serves as a critical resource for identifying vulnerabilities within workloads, enabling proactive security management. By leveraging the dashboard's capabilities, organizations can effectively prioritize their remediation strategies based on risk assessments.
