While preparing the detailed findings section of an assessment, you discover several weaknesses across different systems that share similar technical traits but vary in severity. What approach helps unify how these weaknesses are described so they remain clear and easy to track?
Combine vulnerabilities into a single summary, limiting detail on unique system traits
Note negative impacts and include severity data in the analysis
Use a common framework to categorize issues, assigning each a risk level and corresponding recommendations
Describe weaknesses by referencing scanning artifacts and general system effects
Using a structured approach that identifies weaknesses, assigns severity levels, and proposes targeted actions helps ensure consistent documentation. The other methods either cluster items with limited detail, highlight scanning artifacts over severity, or treat risk details as less important.
