Available metrics

The following Application Security metrics are available for Runtime Vulnerability Analytics.

Vulnerabilities

Metric nameDynatrace versionDescriptionDimensions (values)

Open security problems (global)

1.225+

Number of currently open vulnerabilities seen within the last minute. The metric value is independent of any configured management zone (and thus global).

  • Risk level
    (Critical, High, Medium, Low, None)
  • Type
    (Third-party vulnerability, Code-level vulnerability)
  • Vulnerable component type1
    (Library, Runtime)
  • Public internet exposure
    (Public internet exposure, No public internet exposure, Public internet exposure not available)
  • Reachable data assets
    (Reachable data assets, No reachable data assets, Reachable data assets not available)
  • Vulnerable functions
    (Vulnerable functions in use, No vulnerable functions in use, Vulnerable functions not available)
  • Assessment accuracy
    (Full accuracy, Reduced accuracy, Accuracy not available)
  • Public exploit
    (Public exploit published, No public exploit published)

New open security problems (global)

1.222+

Number of vulnerabilities that were recently created. The metric value is independent of any configured management zone (and thus global).

New muted security problems (global)

1.222+

Number of vulnerabilities that were recently muted. The metric value is independent of any configured management zone (and thus global).

Open security problems (split by management zone)

1.231+

Number of currently open vulnerabilities seen within the last minute. The metric value is split by management zone.

  • Risk Level

  • Type
    (Third-party vulnerability, Code-level vulnerability)
  • Management zone name
  • Vulnerable component type1
    (Library, Runtime)
  • Public internet exposure
    (Public internet exposure, No public internet exposure, Public internet exposure not available)
  • Reachable data assets
    (Reachable data assets, No reachable data assets, Reachable data assets not available)
  • Vulnerable functions
    (Vulnerable functions in use, No vulnerable functions in use, Vulnerable functions not available)
  • Assessment accuracy
    (Full accuracy, Reduced accuracy, Accuracy not available)
  • Public exploit
    (Public exploit published, No public exploit published)

New open security problems (split by management zone)

1.231+

Number of vulnerabilities that were recently created. The metric value is split by management zone.

New resolved security problems (global)

1.222+

Number of vulnerabilities that were recently resolved. The metric value is independent of any configured management zone (and thus global).

  • Risk level
    (Critical, High, Medium, Low, None)
  • Type
    (Third-party vulnerability, Code-level vulnerability)
  • Vulnerable component type1
    (Library, Runtime)
  • Public exploit
    (Public exploit published, No public exploit published)
