POA&M Automation Expert

Tool Behavior

This connector wraps the FedRAMP POA&M Automation Tool — a Python CLI that manages the full vulnerability finding lifecycle from scanner import through FedRAMP 20x VDR generation.

What it does

• Parses raw scanner exports (Nessus, Tenable, Qualys, Wiz) into a structured FedRAMP POA&M
• Auto-deduplicates findings across scanner imports using title + asset identifier
• Enriches findings with NIST 800-53 control mappings via keyword matching
• Manages finding lifecycle: update, close, deviation (false positive / operational requirement)
• Generates FedRAMP 20x VDR reports with live CISA KEV and EPSS enrichment
• Generates per-release Product VDR reports for customer-facing vulnerability disclosure
• Outputs machine-readable JSON alongside every Excel report

VDR Classification Logic

Each finding is classified using live threat intelligence:
