Managing Projects

A Checkmarx One project defines the source to be scanned, used scanners, scan tags, and groups assignment. Normally, a Checkmarx One project should correspond to a software development project, or to part of one. Any time a scan is run, the scan results remain associated with the project.

For Continuous Integration development methodology, if a new branch is created for each iteration, update the code location within the existing project (rather than creating a new project) so that all the results will reside within a single project.

For every Project that exists in Checkmarx One, the following actions are available:

Viewing the Projects Tab

The Workspace Workspace.png > Projects screen, enables you to manage and monitor all of your Checkmarx One Projects.

The expandable Filters & Groups section enables you to group the projects list by Risk Level and displays the applied table filters.

Below that, the Projects pane shows a list of the projects in your account. Hover over the Results button on the desired Project row and select the desired scanner to see detailed scan results, or you can click on the Overview icon to open the project page.

The following table describes the information shown for each project and the actions that can be taken.

Risk Level

The risk level of the Project, based on the vulnerabilities that were identified.

Vulnerability Counters

The number of vulnerabilities identified for each severity level is shown.

Note

Checkmarx uses the newest available CVSS scoring system. If a vulnerability has a CVSS v3.1 score, that score is used; if it only has a CVSS 2.0 score in NVD, that score is used.

The vast majority of vulnerabilities have CVSS 3.1 scores, and all unique Cx Vulnerabilities are ranked using the CVSS 3.1 system.
