Releasing Faraday 2.2

Faraday v2.2 Community, Pro and Corp edition is ready now!

Faraday is the Integrated Multiuser Risk Environment you were looking for! It maps and leverages all the knowledge you generate in real time, letting you track and understand your audits. Our dashboard for CISOs and managers uncovers the impact and risk being assessed by the audit in real-time without the need for a single email. Developed with a specialized set of functionalities that help users improve their own work, the main purpose is to re-use the available tools in the community taking advantage of them in a collaborative way! Check out the Faraday project in Github.

This release features a brand new library to connect with Faraday Server!

Managing vulnerabilities is now easier in Faraday!

Status and creator fields

A simple change can go a long way - we added two new ways of classifying issues stored in Faraday.

With the new update it is now possible to check the status of an issue - this could be opened, closed, re-opened or the risk is accepted.

If you set a vulnerability status as closed and later on when you re-scan the target the same issue is found again, the status will automatically change into re-opened allowing you to have a more granular view of the results of your scans. This is perfect for doing remediation retests, helping you to quickly understand what is still vulnerable.

Also, issues created by a specific tool, can now be filtered and sorted out. A great way to see where are the sources of information used during an engagement.

For example, as we can see in the following screenshots, we have three different issues that are closed [1]. After we import a Nessus scan the issues are marked as re-opened [2], indicating that the vulnerability is still present in the last scan.

1. Closed issues

2. Re-opened by Nessus scan import
