Summary

Detectify's security tool seeks to simplify the understanding and management of security through visualizations and dynamic Threat Scores, which reflect the severity of vulnerabilities based on the CVSS version 3.1. This scoring system emphasizes measuring severity rather than risk and introduces a critical severity level for vulnerabilities scoring between 9 and 10. CVSS v3.1 aims to provide a comprehensive assessment by accounting for specific circumstances and configurations, such as network architecture, which can alter the perceived risk level of a vulnerability. Detectify categorizes vulnerabilities into Low, Medium, High, and Critical levels to help prioritize security efforts, with each level indicating the urgency and potential impact of the vulnerabilities present. The tool integrates CVSS scoring to offer a more precise evaluation of security issues, encouraging users to address vulnerabilities, especially those of High and Critical severity, promptly. The Common Vulnerability Enumeration (CVE) is also mentioned as a unique identifier for vulnerabilities, with CVSS providing a severity indication for each CVE.
