Findings

Findings are single instances of vulnerabilities on your assets, uniquely identified by plugin ID, port, and protocol. They are broken down into categories including vulnerabilities, host audit findings, and web application findings. Findings appear on the Findings page, where you can use them to identify security risks, get visibility into under-utilized resources, or support your compliance efforts.

Tenable Vulnerability Management automatically creates or updates findings when scans complete or you import scan results and retains this data for 15 months.

The following topics explain how to view and export lists of findings, build custom queries with filters, work with findings details, and more.
