Supported Security Tools
- Vulnerability Scanning
- Endpoint Protection
- SIEM & Monitoring
- Code Security
- Other Security
Evidence and Tests by Tool Type
Vulnerability Scanners (Snyk, Wiz, Qualys)
Evidence collected:- Open vulnerability findings with severity, affected component, and remediation guidance
- Scan history and frequency records
- Vulnerability aging reports (time to remediation)
- Suppressed or accepted risk findings with justification
- No critical vulnerabilities older than 30 days
- Vulnerability scanning runs at least weekly
- All production applications are included in scan scope
- Mean time to remediation meets SLA thresholds
Endpoint Protection (CrowdStrike, SentinelOne)
Evidence collected:- Device inventory with protection agent status
- Threat detection events and response actions
- Policy compliance per device (encryption, OS updates, agent version)
- Unprotected device list
- All company devices have endpoint protection agent installed
- Endpoint agent is up to date on all devices
- No unresolved critical threat detections
- Device encryption is enabled on all endpoints
SIEM / Monitoring (Splunk, Datadog)
Evidence collected:- Log collection configuration and coverage
- Alert rules and notification channels
- Incident detection and response timeline evidence
- Uptime and availability metrics
- Security logging is enabled for all critical systems
- Log retention meets minimum requirements (typically 90+ days)
- Alert rules exist for critical security events
- Monitoring covers all production infrastructure
Code Security (GitHub, GitLab, Semgrep)
Evidence collected:- Branch protection rule configurations
- Code review approval requirements
- Dependency vulnerability alerts
- Static analysis findings
- Branch protection is enabled on main/production branches
- Pull requests require at least one approval before merge
- Dependency vulnerability alerts are enabled
- No critical static analysis findings in production code
Framework Control Mapping
Vulnerability Data Flow
1
Integration syncs findings
The security tool integration fetches the latest vulnerability or threat findings from the connected tool.
2
Findings are categorized
Each finding is assigned a severity level (critical, high, medium, low, informational) and mapped to affected assets.
3
Assets are updated
The asset inventory in LowerPlane is updated with vulnerability counts and severity breakdowns.
4
Tests are evaluated
Automated compliance tests check whether findings meet your organization’s SLA thresholds and policy requirements.
5
Controls reflect current status
Control implementation status updates based on test results, and compliance scores recalculate across all applicable frameworks.
