What is a Security Risk?

Security risks refer to weaknesses or vulnerabilities present in identified assets. Addressing these risks promptly is essential to prevent data breaches and other cybersecurity threats.

The RHL ASM Platform provides a predefined list of common security risks to enable easy identification and management. These categories cover a range of issues, including the exposure of sensitive data, expired licenses, and other misconfigurations.

Key Features:​

  • The Security Risks module includes a continuously updated list of all detected security risks, based on ongoing scans and analysis.
  • The total count of identified risk instances is displayed at the top of the module.
  • Users can filter risk instances depending on the selected layout (list or tabular view).
  • Additional functionalities include:
    • Muting instances to ignore specific risks in future scans.
    • Sending instances to the Issue Tracker for follow-up and resolution.
  • Each security risk instance includes the following details:
    • Category Name
    • Asset URL
    • Severity Status
    • First Seen date
    • Last Seen date
