Scoring

Use the scoring screen to map Nozomi Vantage non-CVE severities to Qualys Detection Score (QDS) 0–100. Configure 5 levels of mapping and set a Default Severity for unmapped values.

Identification Rules

Identification Rules are provided out-of-the-box by Qualys CSAM. They control how findings are matched to assets. You may proceed without changes, but ensure at least one rule is active.

How Does a Connection Work?

The Nozomi Vantage connector executes on schedule (or on-demand) based on the configured profile. It imports asset and vulnerability data into ETM, where it can be analyzed with other security findings.

In the Connector screen, your newly configured connector will appear with the state Processed once execution completes.

Viewing Assets and Findings in ETM

After a successful run, Nozomi assets appear in ETM's Inventory:

  • Assets: Go to Inventory > Assets > Host. Filter with tags.name:"Nozomi".
  • Findings: Go to Risk Management > Findings > Vulnerability. Filter with finding.vendorProductName:"Nozomi".
