The main focus of this small update to the VIVA2 add-on is the reporting of protection requirement values and the corresponding inheritance. The internal calculation of protection requirement inheritance has been revised and corrected.
New features of the VIVA2 3.2.4 update in detail:
Revision of the inheritance of protection requirements
If protection requirements are reduced (recognisable by the red marking), the reduced value was not inherited according to the maximum principle. This problem has now been fixed.
New reporting options for protection requirements inheritance
In the new version, two new fields have been introduced that can be used to display the complete inheritance of protection requirements or the inherited protection requirements in reports. The two new fields ‘Protection requirement inheritance complete’ and ‘Inherited protection requirement’ are integrated via the ‘Information network’ category (not ‘Protection requirement’!).
New variable report ‘IT-Grundschutz-Check (complete)
There is now a new report-based user-defined category ‘Report: IT-Grundschutz-Check (complete)’, which displays all fields of the ‘IT-Grundschutz-Check’ category. The category is intended for display on the ‘Information group’ object type, but is not automatically linked to this by the installation, as the less extensive ‘Report: IT-Grundschutz-Check’ category is sufficient for most users.
