- Grace Period
- The time before a recognized finding starts to impact ratings.
- Finding Behavior

- Finding Grades
- Diligence findings are graded as GOOD, FAIR, WARN, BAD, or NEUTRAL based on industry-standard criteria.
- Lifetime
- The number of days a finding impacts the risk vector grade, assuming nothing changes in the future and the finding is not updated with new information.
- No Findings
- The letter grade if there are no findings for a risk vector. For select risk vectors, the most recent grade is assigned for up to 400 days before being assigned the default grade when there are no findings for the risk vector and we are temporarily unable to collect data.
- Remediated
- The time it takes for a remediated finding to be shown as a new finding (replacing the old & stopping its remaining lifetime) or how long it takes for the finding to stop impacting the rating when the finding is updated.
- Risk Vector Grade
- The letter grade for the risk vector.
- Weight
- A percentage value of a risk vector towards the rating. The individual risk vectors are grouped into risk categories and are totaled into the rating.
