# Using the default Vulnerability Response dashboards

The Vulnerability Response
overview dashboard (Vulnerability Management) provides an executive view into vulnerabilities and
vulnerable items, helping the Vulnerability Admin pinpoint areas of concern quickly. The Vulnerability Response remediation dashboard
(Vulnerability Remediation) allows a remediation specialist to focus on the remediation tasks and
vulnerable items they own.

## Data visualizations in the Vulnerability Response Workspaces {#c_VulnHomepage__section_iqs_djc_wqb}

The Vulnerability Response Workspaces include data visualizations that can help you monitor your remediation progress. You can determine the threat level to your organization by viewing the number and severity of active
vulnerabilities that are important to your organization on dynamic data visualizations that are updated as vulnerability data changes. See [Vulnerability Response Workspaces](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/rnvJlmaJdvZZ6X1Xy~qocQ "Vulnerability Response Workspaces offer a consolidated view of the features that enables you to multi-task from within the same pane by boosting productivity and saving time."), [Vulnerability Manager Workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/LLBmw_a5Cu0nzxorsbszKQ "The Vulnerability Manager Workspace enables vulnerability managers and analysts to monitor the vulnerabilities and misconfigurations that they care the most about and decide strategically which vulnerabilities they send to IT teams to fix.") and [Exploring the IT Remediation Workspace](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/kl4_xDHEVmF1jpL7AeKbFw "The IT Remediation Workspace is intended for IT remediation owners and IT groups. It is composed of home and list views as well as data visualizations that you can click that let you see the remediation tasks you've been assigned and how many records assigned to you have solutions.") for more information about the dynamic data visualizations that are available.

Vulnerability analysts can also use default Vulnerability Response dashboards.

Roles required: sn_vul.vulnerability_admin,
sn_vul.vulnerability_analyst, and users with sn_vul.vulnerability_read (or who inherit the
sn_vul.vulnerability_read role), and pa_viewer.

## The default Vulnerability Response dashboards in the legacy environment {#c_VulnHomepage__section_bzd_zkc_wqb}

These reports are included as part of the Performance Analytics for Vulnerability Response application and do not require a separate subscription. To open one, select the choice list to expand it and choose a dashboard. Alternatively, enter the name of a dashboard in the search field.  
Note:  
When the Performance Analytics Content
Pack for Vulnerability Response
application is installed and activated, the Vulnerability Management (PA) dashboard, is
displayed automatically in the Overview module. This dashboard contains reports covering all
stages of the vulnerability management life cycle.

For information on the reports included in the Performance Analytics Content Pack for Vulnerability Response, see [Vulnerability Management \[PA\]
dashboard](H_JST1F75nQRFgTRN1Lr1A "Track the volume, performance and progress of vulnerabilities from initial analysis and detection to containment, or remediation. You can filter reports by assignment group, exploits, risk rating, or state, for example. Quickly gain insight into your vulnerability exposure and which business services are affected.").

For information about the CISO dashboard and Scan Coverage reports, see [Vulnerability Management CISO
dashboard](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/nyqlAegb6nJVYDDmpzCJnA "With the Vulnerability Management CISO dashboard, view data such as Key Performance Metrics (KPIs) for vulnerability remediation, see the highest risks, verify scan coverage, and learn how to lower risks.").

## Vulnerability Management dashboard {#c_VulnHomepage__section_fd5_sgp_sgb}

In each chart, you can point to any part of a chart (bar, pie, data point, and so on) to view general data specific to that part. If you click any part of a report, a list opens to provide detailed information.  
Note:  
If customized dashboards are needed, see [Create and use dashboards](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/access?context=create-and-edit-dashboards&version=australia&pubname=australia-now-intelligence&ft:locale=en-US) for more
information.

## Vulnerability Remediation dashboard {#c_VulnHomepage__section_pl3_vgp_sgb}

Starting with version 19.0 of Vulnerability Response, this dashboard is available in the New Experience UI.  
Note:  
If you are on Tokyo, you can view the dashboards in the Next Experience UI but with some functional loss.

The Vulnerability Remediation dashboard contains the following tabs: Assigned to My Groups, Assigned to Me, and Requested by Me. The Assigned to My Groups and Assigned to Me tabs show the same reports. The former tab reports by the assignment groups you belong to, and the latter by vulnerable
items or remediation tasks that are assigned to you. The Requested by Me tab reports the false positives and exceptions you requested.
