Configuring a Threshold Range for Calculating Incident Scores

A common threshold range criteria must be established for assessment, finding, and risk objects. When assessments are run, the risk vulnerability incident scores are derived according to the scale that has been defined for a range. Before running an assessment, ensure that the threshold range is configured to meet the auditing guidelines and policies of the assessment objectives.

Each configuration range allows the user to adjust the threshold range by specifying the numeric value, unique name, color, and the option to display text or a score.

In order to adjust the configurations, you must have the Tenant Configure permission.
