Every finding has a status that tracks where it is in your workflow. There are three statuses, and they cover the full lifecycle of a finding from the moment the agent reports it to the moment you're done with it.

## The three statuses

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open">
    The default status. Every new finding from the agent lands as Open. This is where triage happens and where the finding sits until you decide what to do with it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Fixed">
    You mark a finding as Fixed once the vulnerability is resolved. You can do this manually from the detail view or the dashboard, or let a retest flip it for you automatically once the agent confirms the issue is gone.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Risk Accepted">
    You mark a finding as Risk Accepted when you're not planning to act on it. Out of scope, a known risk you're accepting, a business decision, or a finding you believe is wrong. Risk Accepted findings stay visible on the dashboard so the decision is always tracked, they're not hidden.
  </Step>
</Steps>

Findings are never deleted or hidden. Every finding the agent has reported stays on the dashboard so the full history is always there, regardless of status.
