The Reports module makes generating security reports for penetration tests more efficient and effective. The module enhances the value and quality of the reports, presenting the test findings clearly and concisely with relevant context and actionable recommendations. This helps ensure that all vulnerabilities, weaknesses, and potential risks are thoroughly documented, allowing clients and stakeholders to understand their systems or applications' security posture.
Users access the module by clicking Reports in the application's main menu.
The Reports module home page displays all reports that a user has access to view with the following fields:
Client Name: The name of the client for which the report was written.
Report Title: The name of the report.
Status: The status of the report, such as Published
or Draft
.
Classification: If applicable, a custom classification tier value will appear, giving the user insight into the report's security. The default value is Unclassified
.
Current Finding Count: The number of associated findings.
Actions: Provides access to view a readout of the report, all report findings, or delete a report.
Reports can also be imported or created from this page.
To access the bulk actions menu, click on any box to the left of a report's name or the "Client Name" field label.
After clicking on a box, an Actions button will appear, offering the option to update one or more reports with various tasks.
The table view can be customized by clicking the column view icon to the right of the search bar.
Once clicked, a modal appears that lists all fields. To remove a column, click X within the bar.
Fields that are required do not have an X available.
When fields are removed, an "Add Column" pulldown menu is added at the bottom left of the modal to store the field. Any removed fields can be added later by clicking Add Column and selecting the field to add.
This modal represents the sequence of fields provided in the table, meaning the bar on top will be the column on the table's far left.
The order of columns can be adjusted within this modal by clicking the six dots on the left of the bar for a field and dragging the bar to the desired sequence place.
Click Save when finished.
