If you have finding reoccurrences, similar findings clients or projects, or otherwise have to duplicate a finding, Clone Findings allows you to copy data from an existing finding with the click of a button. In addition, clone settings mean you can keep or reset any data you want, making it easy to re-use findings across assets, projects, and even clients.
Let's take a look!
How to Clone a Finding
1. Click on the relevant finding from either the Finding menu or the Pentest project
2. Click ... in the Finding menu
3. Select Clone Finding
You can either clone your finding to the same project or to a different project.
How to Batch Clone Findings
You can clone multiple findings at once, including all findings from a single project. To do so:
1. Navigate to the relevant pentest project
2. Go to Findings in the project menu
3. Select the findings you'd like to clone
4. Click Clone
Clone Finding Settings
You can clone any part of your finding to either the same project or to a new project. These settings also carry through when batch cloning findings.
1. Clone to a project (Select from active projects, including current active project)
2. Select which data you'd like to keep:
- Keep Linked Assets when the test is on the same Assets
- Keep Activity from the ticket when this is a reoccurrence or the circumstances and team are the same
- Keep compliance norms and controls linked to the finding when the test methodology and norms are the same
- Generate new findings codes when you want a Finding you can search separately, for a different project or client.
3. Either immediately publish the finding or set it to draft
4. Click Clone
5. Confirm your selection
6. If you've opted not to keep any data such as assets, you can add it to the finding as you normally would by editing the finding.
