Triage and analysis
Grouping similar findings allows security analysts or IT auditors to segment and triage source code problems. This section explains how to triage AppScan® Source assessments and analyze results.
Triage with exclusions
After a scan, you may decide that some findings are irrelevant to your current work, and you do not want them visible in the findings table when you triage the scan results. These exclusions (or excluded findings) no longer appear in the Findings view and the assessment metrics update immediately with the changed results. Filter and bundle exclusions added to a configuration only take effect on subsequent scans.
Marking findings as exclusions in a findings table

Marking findings as exclusions in a findings table

Procedure

Select the finding (or group of findings) in the findings table that may not be important to you or that you do not want to see.
Right-click the selection and then choose Exclude Findings from the menu. The exclusion or exclusions apply immediately. Excluded findings no longer appear in the table and metrics update immediately.

To view excluded findings, open the Excluded Findings view. Excluded findings also appear in a bundle named Excluded Bundle.

To re-include findings that have been excluded, follow the instructions in Re-including findings that have been marked as exclusions.
