SQL example - vulnerability exception categorization

You can "ignore" vulnerabilities based on several exception categories. You can change the following dve.reason_id field to look at the information from different perspectives:

  • False Positive = 'F'
  • Compensating Control = 'C'
  • Acceptable Use = 'U'
  • Acceptable Risk = 'R'
  • Other = 'O'
