View your Risk Exposure Score

Your Risk Exposure Score indicates how at risk your network environment is. The Risk Exposure Score is a weighted average of the scores of all unmitigated Medium, High, and Critical vulnerabilities within your network at a particular time. The Risk Exposure Score updates automatically when new risks are found, existing risks are mitigated or accepted, or when the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) score for the existing risks change.

A Risk Exposure Score is only available with the Arctic Wolf® Managed Risk and Managed Detection and Response (MDR) services:
  • If an organization subscribes to MDR only, the Risk Exposure Score calculation is based on scheduled External Vulnerability Assessment (EVA) scans.
  • If an organization has Managed Risk, either as a standalone subscription or in addition to other Arctic Wolf services, the Risk Exposure Score calculation is based on EVA scans, Internal Vulnerability Assessment (IVA) scans, and Agent scans.

For more information about Risk Exposure Score calculations and the differences between each algorithm, see Legacy Risk Exposure Score calculation and Risk Exposure Score calculation.
