Filter Index

Note: Currently this article only covers Finding Filters available in the DefectDojo Pro UI, but this article will be expanded in the future to govern more object types, along with Open-Source filters.

Here is a list of filters that can be applied in the DefectDojo Pro UI to sort lists of Findings. DefectDojo Filters can be used to assist with navigating through lists of Objects, building custom dashboards, or creating automation via Rules Engine.

Findings

These fields are specific to DefectDojo Findings and are used to organize a Finding. Each of these filters is a separate column in the All Findings table.

Findings in DefectDojo can be filtered by:

DefectDojo Metadata

These Filters are related directly to DefectDojo core functionality.

Cannot be modified

These Filters are assigned at the time of issue creation, and cannot be directly modified via Edit Finding.

• Product
• Product Type
• Engagement
• Engagement Version
• Test
• Test Type
• Test Version
• Date Created
• Age (Finding age in days)
• SLA Expiration Date
• Mitigated Within SLA (True or False value: was the Finding Mitigated within SLA or not?)
• Reporter (user or service who created the Finding)

Can be modified

These fields are set when an issue is created, but can be modified as an issue progresses.

Additional Model Functions

These DefectDojo functions can be used to further organize your Findings or track remediation.

These fields have no direct impact on the functionality of DefectDojo, but provide additional information to help explain and mitigate issues. They can be set when a Finding is initially created (using information in an incoming report), or they can be changed by a user.
