Set Default Severity Values

The default severity values of a vulnerability are as follows:

  • High = 10
  • Medium = 6
  • Low = 3
  • N/A = 10

However, some customers may prefer to use the following values:

  • Critical = 10
  • High = 8
  • Medium = 6
  • Low = 4
  • Informational = 2

In order to set these values, users must follow the below steps:

To change the default severity values:

  1. Navigate to the %AGILIANCE_HOME%\config\ folder.

  2. Open the agiliance.properties file.

  3. Set the following properties as specified:

    • com.Agiliance.Vulnerability.Severity.Assignment=false

    • vulnerability.severity.value=Critical,10;High,8;Medium,6;Low,4;Informational,2

  4. Close the file and restart RiskVision.
