Edit a Compensating Control Attached to a Vulnerability

Once a vulnerability compensating control has been added to a vulnerability, its Detection % and Protection % values can be edited at any time by a user with the Threats and Vulnerabilities View and Update permissions.

To edit the values of a vulnerability compensating control attached to a vulnerability:

  1. Open the Vulnerabilities menu.

  2. Click any page, such as My Vulnerabilities, Vulnerabilities from Scanners or Users, or Inferred Vulnerabilities
  3. Click a vulnerability.The Vulnerability details page.
  4. Click Comp Controls to open the Vulnerability Compensating Controls tab.The Vulnerability Compensating Controls tab.
  5. Click either Edit or in the Detection % or Protection % fields of a vulnerability compensating control to open the Edit Vulnerability Compensating Controls page.The Edit Vulnerability Compensating Controls page.
  6. Make any changes to the Detection % or Protection % fields as required. The sum of a single row cannot exceed 100%. Because some vulnerability compensating controls may be used by multiple assets, the total sum of all fields may exceed 100%.
  7. Click Save Changes to save your edits and continue editing, or Save and Exit to save your edits and return to the Vulnerability Compensating Controls tab.
