Automation Playbook provides the ability to automate many of the ongoing vulnerability remediation tasks – from ticket opening and routing to full-cycle alerting and patching.
Before running a live playbook on the production environment, we highly recommend conducting a test playbook to sense the functionality before going live.
Test playbook for a single run on a group of vulnerabilities
To test playbook for a single run on a group of vulnerabilities, follow these steps:
Create the playbook according to the guide.
On the automation screen, choose the test playbook and click "Run now."
Track the playbook activity via the Activity log to sense the playbook progress.
When finishing the tests, delete the playbook.
Test playbook for multiple runs on a group of vulnerabilities
In cases of few tests on the same group of vulnerabilities, follow these steps:
Create the playbook according to the guide.
On the automation screen, click on "Run now" on the test playbook.
Track the playbook activity via the Activity log to sense the playbook progress.
To create the second run, go to the Automation screen and duplicate the test-playbook.
On the automation screen, click on "Run now" on the second test playbook.
Repeat steps 4-5 as many times as needed.
