The Finding Details Pane

Open, navigate, and edit a finding in the right-hand Details Pane — header, key attributes, inline editing, and the detail tabs.

This article explains how to open and work in the Finding Details Pane in the Cye Exposure Management Platform — the right-hand panel where you review and edit everything about a finding.

Overview

When you select a finding, its details open in the right-hand pane. From here you can review the finding's key attributes, edit the fields you have permission to change, and move through tabs of more detailed information.


Open the pane

  1. Click the Findings icon in the left-hand navigation to show the findings list.

  2. Click any row to open that finding in the right-hand pane.

  3. Click Full Screen (top-right of the pane) for a larger, focused view.

  1. Click Back (top-left) to exit full-screen and return to the list.

  2. To widen the pane, hover over its left edge until the drag icon appears, then drag.


The header

The top section of the pane gives you quick access to the finding's identity and main actions:

  • ID — a unique identifier starting with #F-; click the copy icon to copy it.

  • Finding Name — a short label for the issue.

  • Share — share the finding with other users (see Sharing Findings).

  • View on Graph — open the finding's position in the Org. Attack Graph.

  • Full Screen — expand the pane to a full-page view.

  • Comments — view, add, or delete comments; all comment actions are logged in the History tab.


Key attributes

Below the header, the pane surfaces the finding's most important attributes:

  • TypeVulnerability (a confirmed, actionable issue), Potential (a suspected issue with limited evidence), or Capability (a link between two graph positions showing access, not a flaw).

  • Status — the current lifecycle stage (for example Open, In Progress, Fixed); you can update it here.

  • Exposure Reduction — how much organizational risk drops if the finding is fixed (see Finding Exposure Reduction).

  • Maturity Level — the cybersecurity maturity level linked to the finding through its NIST subcategories.

  • Severity — the risk level, based on the platform's risk-based model.

For full definitions of every finding field, see Finding Fields.


View and edit fields

  • Hover over any field to reveal the copy to clipboard icon.

  • Editable fields show a pen icon on hover — click it to edit the field.

Editing is permission-based: only users with an Editor or Admin role and the Finding & Graph Initiator permission can modify finding data in an engagement, and only if they were granted access when the finding was shared.


The tabs

The pane organizes a finding's detail across tabs — Overview, Mitigation, Standards, Project, Comments, and History.

For what each tab contains, see The Finding Detail Tabs.
