Adding a Remediation Asset to a Finding

Manually add or import remediation assets to link them with a specific finding.

Updated over 5 months ago

Overview

This article introduces the two ways you can add remediation assets to a finding in Hyver.
A remediation asset is a system, device, or component where the vulnerability (finding) was detected. You can link existing assets, create new ones, or import them from a CSV file.


Options for Adding Remediation Assets

You can add remediation assets to a finding in two ways:

  1. Manually — Add existing or new assets from within Hyver

  2. Import from CSV — Bulk upload assets using a structured file

This article covers the manual option. CSV import is explained in a separate article.


Manually Adding a Remediation Asset

  1. Open the Findings page
    Click the Findings icon in the left navigation to view the list of findings.

  2. Select the finding

    • Click the menu icon in the row of the finding

    • Or click the menu icon in the top-right corner of the finding’s detail pane:

Then:

  1. Choose Add remediation asset:


    A dialog opens showing a dropdown of previously defined assets.

  2. Select an existing asset
    Choose from the dropdown list of available assets already created in Hyver:

    • You may check Has been verified if the remediation is already confirmed as complete:


Adding a New Asset

Alternatively, click + Add New Asset to create both a new asset and a new remediation asset linked to the finding:

In the creation form:

  • Type – Choose the type of asset (e.g., Application, IP Range), or enter a new one

  • Status – Set the current remediation status:

    • Open

    • To Do

    • In Progress

    • On Hold

    • Fixed

    • Reopen

    • Acceptable Risk

    • Not Relevant

    • Draft

    • Awaiting Approval

    • Not Approved

    • Approved

If a finding is not an edge on the mitigation graph, it can be marked as Fixed even if the linked remediation asset has a status of Acceptable Risk.

  • Severity – Select the severity of the finding on this asset: Critical, High, Medium, Low, or Informative

  • Product – Specify the product or platform (e.g., SQL, Java)

  • Additional Info – Add context or notes

  • Linked Edges – Connect the asset to a graph edge if applicable

  1. Click Create to add the remediation asset to the finding.


What happens after remediation

Once all linked remediation assets are set to Fixed, the finding itself can be marked Fixed. At that point:

  • The system may prompt for a description of the fix:

  • A comment labeled Marked as fixed is added to the Project tab

  • The fix is visible to both your team and the CYE service team

  • Calculations update automatically (e.g., mitigation graph, likelihood)

A verified fixed finding is shown with a green shield icon in the list.


Wrap-up / Next Steps

Adding remediation assets ensures every finding is tied to the systems that need attention. Use manual or bulk methods based on your workflow and keep statuses accurate for clean tracking.
