Severity and Risk Scoring Descriptions
Severity
This indicates the seriousness or criticality of a vulnerability. Common severity levels include low, medium, high, and critical. Higher severity vulnerabilities typically pose a greater risk and require immediate attention and mitigation.

EPSS ScoreEnvironmental Score is a component of the CVSS (Common Vulnerability Scoring System) that considers environmental factors specific to the organization's environment. This score reflects how the vulnerability affects the specific deployment environment and helps assess the risk in real life
Exploit Prediction Scoring System is sourced from first.org/epss.
Download the data/base from here: https://www.first.org/epss/data_stats
EPSS is a daily estimate of the probability of exploitation activity being observed over the next 30 days. It is designed from the ground up to make the best use of all of the information available and it does this in five steps:
Collect as much vulnerability information as we can from a variety of sources
Collect evidence of daily exploitation activity
Train a model: discover/learn the relationship between the vulnerability information and the exploitation activity
Measure the performance of the model, tweak and repeat step 3 to optimize the model
On a daily basis: refresh the vulnerability information (step 1) and use the model (step 3) to produce daily estimates of the probability of exploitation in the next 30 days for each published CVE.

How is Severity Calculated?
Severity information is imported from the standard vulnerability databases.

Asset Risk Scoring Details
Assets are scored individually and assigned a letter grade: A, B, C, D, E, or F, just like in grade school. Tap on the letter grade of any asset to see the Rubrix breakdown of how we score based on vulnerabilities.
...
Asset Average Risk Score Calculation
The sum of present Problem Category scores divided by the sum of all Severity Problem Category scores + other Problem Category Scores that are present.
...
20 = 250 (Sum of Severity Categories) / 50 (Total Weightage of Problem Categories that Exist)

End of Life
ConnectSecure checks against Assets to categorize end-of-life (EOL) in two ways.

This is found in the Problem Group of ‘Informational’ as shown in the example below:
...
Risk Level Descriptions for EOL on Active/Security Support
Level | Description |
|---|---|
1 | Both Active and Security Support have ended; no support is available |
3 | If the operating system is within 1 year of its security support end date; limited support |
4 | If the operating system is within its Active support but past its Security support; extended support |
5 | If the operating system is within both Active and Security support timelines; full support |
