The Library provides pre-configured options to help you get started with using the service and its many features. These configurations for vulnerability management are included at this time: option profiles, report templates and search lists. You can import these configurations into your account and use them as-is or edit them as needed. Note the Library is updated regularly with new configurations.
User Permissions: When you import a configuration from the Library, you become the configuration's owner and this gives you the ability to edit the configuration. Managers and Unit Managers have the option to make the configuration globally available to users. Managers can make the configuration available to all users, and Unit Managers can make the configuration available to users in their business unit. A global configuration for all users can be edited by Managers, and a global configuration available to business unit users can be edited by Managers or Unit Managers that have responsibility for the same business unit as the configurations.
Option Profiles define the parameters for vulnerability scans. The Library includes option profiles designed to address many of your scanning and reporting requirements. You can import option profiles from the option profiles list and while launching scans and defining scan schedules.
