Getting Data into Vulnerability Response Questions
Learn how vulnerability scanner data is imported, transformed, and matched to configuration items in the CMDB.
About Getting Data into Vulnerability Response
Vulnerability Response relies on data from third-party vulnerability scanners. Understanding how this data is ingested, parsed, and matched to CMDB records is essential for a functioning VR implementation.
Why This Matters for Your Exam
Data Ingestion covers 25% of the CIS-VR exam. This topic tests your knowledge of import processes, data sources, matching rules, and how scanner integrations work.
Key Concepts to Master
Understand the import set process for vulnerability data, how CI matching works, and the role of data sources. Know the common scanner integrations (Qualys, Tenable, Rapid7) and their configuration.
Exam Tips
Focus on the matching process - how vulnerability scanner assets are matched to CMDB CIs. Know what happens when matches fail and how to handle orphan records.
