Filtering and Searching

Filtering and Searching

As your asset portfolio grows, finding specific issues and findings becomes critical. FortWatch provides filtering and sorting tools to help you focus on what matters.

Filtering by Severity

The most common filter is severity. By default, FortWatch shows Critical, High, Medium, and Low findings. Info-severity findings are hidden by default and require explicit opt-in to display.

Use severity filters to:

• Focus on Critical and High issues during triage sessions.
• Review Medium findings during scheduled maintenance planning.
• Include Info findings only when performing thorough security audits.

Sorting

Findings and issues are sorted by severity by default: Critical first, then High, Medium, and Low. This ensures the most important items are always at the top of the list.

Filtering by Asset

You can filter findings and issues to show only those affecting a specific asset. This is useful when:

• You are working on remediating a specific server.
• You want to assess the security posture of a single domain.
• You need to prepare a report for a specific part of your infrastructure.

Filtering by Status

For issues, you can filter by status:

• Open — Issues that need attention.
• In Progress — Issues being actively worked on.
• Resolved — Issues that have been fixed.
• Dismissed — Issues that have been set aside with a reason.

Filtering by Scanner

Filter findings by their source scanner (Nuclei or Nmap) to focus on specific types of results — for example, viewing only port scan findings to audit your network attack surface, or only Nuclei findings to focus on web vulnerabilities.
