How to interpret the results of the external scan?

Dashboard

All the information gathered through the external scan is aggregated and weighted into a total score, visible from the "Infrastructure" and then "Vulnerabilities" tabs of Stoïk Protect. This score provides an overall view of the general risk level, calculated from all detected vulnerabilities. A graph allows you to see the evolution of the score, week after week.

 

Detailed vulnerabilities

Each vulnerability is then displayed below the dashboard:

  • Prioritization: filter vulnerabilities by degree of severity – medium, high or critical – to quickly visualize the areas that need to be addressed with priority.
  • Explanations: click on a vulnerability to see its summary and instructions for remediation.

 

Rerun the scan

If you have implemented new corrective measures on your infrastructure, you can relaunch the external scan by clicking on "Rerun the scan," at the bottom of the "Infrastructure" tab.

 

False Positive

You can dispute a vulnerability if it is a false positive or if it does not seem relevant. To do this, simply click on the vulnerability, choose a reason for the dispute, and then click on "Dispute."
