    The Apps grid shows a list of all applications and OS versions that have at least one issue, including the following columns:

    • App Name. The name of the application or Operating System version.
    • Category. The type of issue with the app. There are four categories:
      • Outdated Version - A patch is available for the app, but there are no CVEs associated with the patch.
      • Security - A patch is available for the app, and there are CVEs associated with the patch.
      • OS - A operating system patch is available.
      • End Of Life - The application is no longer receiving any updates.
    • Platform. The OS platform where the issue was detected.
    • Versions. The number of different versions of the application installed on your devices that are outdated.
    • Vendor. The name of the app's vendor.
    • Score. The level of security risk caused by the app. See Application score and severity below for details.
    • Severity. The severity of the application's issues. See Application score and severity below for details.
    • CVEs. The number of Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) identified for the application.
    • Remediation Status. Whether a remediation is available for the application's issues. If a remediation is available, you can manually perform an action to remediate it. Read Manually Scan Devices and Remediate Issues for details.
    • Usage. The percentage of your devices running the application out of the total number of devices with the application installed.
    • Installed on. The number of devices with the application installed.
    • Devices. How many devices are affected by the issue and need to be updated. The red portion of the bar shows the number of devices that still have the issue and have not yet been remediated. The green portion shows the number of devices that had the issue but have been remediated so that the issue no longer exists.
    • Install Type. If the install type is "Auto", then Secure DX can automatically remediate the issue and update the application. If the install type is "Manual", then you must manually update the application. You can click on the application name and see a link to the latest version of the application in the Latest Version field.

    Application score and severity

    Every application gets a score to help you identify applications with a high security risk. The application score is based on:

    • The number of different affected versions of the application.
    • The number of devices that have the application installed.
    • The Severity of the application's issue.
