Overview
Scoping mode in Hyver lets you simulate how your maturity assessment changes when you include or exclude specific finding statuses or limit the view to certain engagements. This article explains how scoping mode works, what it shows you, and how it can help guide your maturity planning.
What Is Scoping Mode?
Scoping mode is a simulation tool that helps you explore how different data conditions affect your maturity assessment. It allows you to:
Include or exclude findings based on status (including pre-open statuses)
Select specific engagements to view maturity progress at a scoped level
See how maturity scores shift before committing to any changes
Note: Search, filtering, and framework switching are disabled while in scoping mode.
Benefits of Scoping Mode
See progression of maturity by selectively toggling data inputs
Identify if you have enough findings to unlock scoring at the category, function, or org level
View the impact of pre-open statuses, which are not used in regular maturity scoring
Get engagement-specific maturity insights
Compare scoped maturity scores using visual indicators (green/red arrows)
How to Enable Scoping Mode
Click Data Scoping to activate the mode:
Select the finding statuses and engagements you want to simulate:
Click Enable to apply the scoped view
Review on-screen maturity values and indicators:
Green arrows = score increased in scoping mode
Red arrows = score decreased in scoping mode
A message will confirm that scores shown reflect scoping mode and that any changes to maturity scores or targets are saved:
Important Notes
Manual score changes or target updates made in scoping mode are permanent and affect your actual maturity assessment
Scoped selections are retained for the current user session until modified
Scoped data only affects the current screen view — it doesn’t alter system-wide logic
To exit, click Exit scoping mode:
Wrap-up / Next Steps
Scoping mode gives you a powerful way to model "what if" scenarios before making maturity decisions. Use it to fine-tune your strategy, test assumptions, and build confidence in your scoring data.
