# Active Issues Reports

The Active Issues report provides a real-time view and an overtime view of all unresolved security issues in your organization.\
It helps teams track the volume, severity, and type of active issues, enabling data-driven prioritization and remediation.

You can filter and export the report data.

Use the Active Issues report to:

* Monitor the trend of unresolved security issues over time.
* Identify categories with the highest concentration of open issues.
* Focus on the most critical and high-impact vulnerabilities first.
* Track ownership and accountability for issue resolution.
