Average Widgets

Use average widgets to track the risk level for the number of days it took to close the vulnerability. The Mean Time To Remediation (MTTR) option is auto-selected in Select Field.

For example, you could calculate the average number of days it took to remediate vulnerabilities from their discovery dates.

Note: The Advanced Settings feature is disabled while using the Average widget.
