SLA & MTTR Management

What it is

SLA and MTTR (Mean Time To Remediate) management tracks whether vulnerabilities are being fixed within organization-defined timeframes. It connects risk scores to operational accountability.

Highlights

  • Configurable targets — organizations define expected remediation hours per severity level (Critical, High, Medium, Low).
  • Breach detection — automatically identifies vulnerabilities that have exceeded their remediation deadline.
  • Severity bucketing — Critical (CVSS ≥ 9), High (≥ 7), Medium (≥ 4), Low (below 4).
  • Tagged asset reporting — SLA reports can be filtered by asset tags for team-specific accountability.
  • Scheduled summaries — daily breach checks, weekly and monthly SLA rollups.
