Review Application Security posture and remediate issues by Urgency
Use this workflow to review Application Security posture, prioritize issues by Urgency, and investigate issue details.
Review Application Security posture
On the AppSec Dashboard, use the Open Issues by Urgency and Scan Type widget to review your application security posture. This widget highlights where open Urgent and Top Urgent issues are concentrated across four issue types: Vulnerabilities, IaC Misconfigurations, Secrets, and Code Weaknesses.
As the only view that visualizes urgency levels as posture data, it displays urgency by scanner type. For deeper context, individual metrics—such as Internet Exposed, CISA KEV, EPSS, and Is Deployed—are available in the issue side panel.
Drill down to issues prioritized by Urgency
Use one of these paths to open issues prioritized by Urgency. The AppSec Dashboard filters results by specific Urgency levels (such as Top Urgent or Urgent) for a single scan type (such as Vulnerabilities). The ASPM Command Center displays issues by Urgency level across all scan types combined.
Combine Urgency and scanner-type filters to focus triage on one issue type.
Locate the Open Issues by Urgency and Scan type widget.
Identify the scanner type with the highest concentration of Top Urgent and Urgent issues.
Select the relevant Top Urgent or Urgent segment. For example, select Urgent on the Vulnerabilities column.
Result: The issues table filters to the selected Urgency level and scanner type. Selecting Urgent on Vulnerabilities shows Urgent vulnerability issues only.
The Command Center does not display Urgency posture. It routes to issues prioritized by Urgency using a hidden filter.
Open the ASPM Command Center dashboard.
Optionally scope results with the Application filter and time range control.
Select the issues funnel to open the aggregation view.
On the Prioritized stage, select View Prioritized Issues.
Select Currently open or All.
Result: The issues table opens in a new browser tab with Top Urgent and Urgent issues across all scanner types. Currently open further filters results to New and In Progress issues.
Investigate issues in the side panel
Select an issue to open its side panel. Use the side panel to understand the Urgency Details and investigate issue context.
Confirm the Urgency badge, contributing metrics, and calculation freshness. A stale indicator appears when the calculation is over 12 hours older than the issue update.
If Urgency is Not Applicable, the engine retries during the next periodic scan. Review Urgency metrics for each metric's meaning.
