Scan Notes
Index redacted scan and triage artifacts — YOUR $LAB_ASSETS engagement evidence.
Visual · t18_scan_notes
Scan notes = indexed evidence from YOUR VA work. Original Cyberlium.
Opening
Reviewers trust an index with redaction notes — not a folder called final_scan_leaked.
Build scan notes index listing capstone artifacts: RoE, asset inventory, scan export summary, CVSS lab, triage workbook, VA report, remediation tracker, retest log. Fields: path, date, one-line description, redactions applied. All from $LAB_ASSETS under RoE — no employer tickets, no classmate scan shares, no unauthorized production. chmod 600 index under $HOME/cyberlium-lab.
1. Index fields
Artifact name, module lesson, file path, UTC date, description, redactions.

Wrong
