Which role is required to configure Remediation Targets?

The role of Vulnerability Admin is essential for configuring Remediation Targets in the ServiceNow Vulnerability Response module. This role possesses the necessary permissions to manage and define the settings related to remediation efforts. These settings are critical for ensuring that vulnerabilities are addressed effectively and that the correct procedures are followed during the remediation process.

Having access to this role allows individuals to create, modify, and control the workflow involving the assignment of remediation tasks to various teams, ensuring proper resource allocation and accountability in tackling identified vulnerabilities. The Vulnerability Admin is typically tasked with overseeing the overall vulnerability management process, which includes greater responsibilities beyond those of other roles.

In contrast, other roles like Vulnerability Manager and Security Analyst may have specific functions in monitoring and analyzing vulnerabilities, but they do not possess the elevated permissions to configure and manage Remediation Targets. The IT Asset Manager might handle asset-related information and data, but authority over remediation strategies falls primarily within the scope of the Vulnerability Admin.
