Vulnerability › Module 8 › Lesson 4
Report Lab
Assemble VA report from YOUR triage — exec summary, findings, evidence index.
Visual · t18_report_lab
Lab: full VA report on $LAB_ASSETS work. Original Cyberlium.
Opening
One complete lab report proves you can hand off to remediation — not that you scanned the internet.
Build VA report from Modules 6–7 lab artifacts on $LAB_ASSETS: executive summary, scope/RoE section, methodology (scanner name, credentialed Y/N), findings table (≥5 rows mix P1/P2/FP), two full finding blocks, evidence index per hygiene lesson. Export PDF or markdown chmod 600. No stranger targets, no exploit PoC appendices, no inflated severity. Report feeds remediation planning module.
1. Report skeleton
Cover: title, date, scope $LAB_ASSETS, author you.
Body: exec summary → methodology → findings → appendix evidence index.
Command guide
Try these commands — Report skeleton
Primary tools to practice this lesson: grep, nmap. Reference sites: VA report template; Greenbone report literacy (https://docs.greenbone.net/). Run every command in the box — install first, then the usage lines — only on YOUR lab / program scope.
2. Quality bar
Every confirmed finding links triage evidence row.
FP section shows professional dedupe — not hidden failures.
3. Teardown
chmod 600 report and attachments. Redact before any share.
No publishing report with live internal IPs to public repo.
4. What you ship: VA report lab pack
Complete report + evidence index — chmod 600.
5. What you record before the next lesson
VA report lab path.
6. Wrong vs right: stranger nets vs YOUR lab assets
Worked failure — same MSF word, opposite target. Right never needs a café Wi-Fi or classmate laptop.
Wrong
Add findings from Shodan to pad report page count.
Right
VA report from $LAB_ASSETS triage. Next: quiz.
Mission: report lab
1) Exec summary from triage counts. 2) ≥5 finding rows + two full blocks. 3) Evidence index; secure report.
