Workflow Jobs

The Workflow Job module in Infraon NCCM automates downloading OS vulnerability details from the Cisco and NIST databases. It is a privilege-based feature, allowing users to access, add, edit, delete, execute, and export workflow jobs only if the administrator assigns them appropriate roles and privileges.

This module supports tasks such as downloading vulnerability data, OS versions, EOX status (for Cisco devices), and automating processes based on a configured schedule.
