Advisories are available to Vanguard users, or Premium users who have opted for one of the bolt-ons.
What is an advisory?
Advisories are issues discovered and investigated by the security team, falling into one of the following categories:
How do they work?
In the event that a member of the security team detects an issue, it will be published in the portal for your review.
Once you have remediated, you can then hit the retest button, which will alert the security team of the request; once the issue has been reviewed the advisory will be updated accordingly.
Where can I find my advisories?
Newly discovered advisories can be found at the top of your Issues page. Clicking onto one will open up the issue description:

If you would like to view the Remediation Advice from the Security Team then you can do this by clicking the Remediation tab next to the Description tab:
If you have one of our issue tracking/management integrations added to Intruder (e.g. Jira/ServiceNow), you can also send the advisory to these systems by clicking the Send To > [Platform Name] button.
Once you have remediated the issue and requested a retest (as described above), the Security Team will re-check your target(s) for this issue and, if the issue is fixed, then the advisory will be moved to the Fixed tab.
How am I notified of an advisory?
There are several mediums by which we'll communicate the status of an advisory.
