  • Select time range - Choose between 3, 6, and 12 months to define the period for historical analysis.

  • Vulnerability Density Percentage - Displays the vulnerability density (number of findings divided by the number of lines of code scanned) over the selected time period, grouped by severity. Use the dropdown to select specific severity levels (All, Critical, High, Medium, Low).

  • Vulnerable Apps by Severity - Displays trends in the number of vulnerable applications over time, grouped by severity level. Click legend items to filter the information displayed based on application risk rating.

    Note: Not scanned refers to applications that were scanned in the previous month but have not been scanned within the currently selected time period.

  • Number of Applications Scanned and Scan Time - Displays line chart showing how many applications were scanned and the average scan duration (in hours) over time.

  • Vulnerability Compliance: Displays the number of vulnerabilities detected over time, categorized by OWASP Top 10, SANS Top 25, FortiGuard Alerts, and Supply Chain Threats.
