Quests

The following functionality has been added. 

Admins can...

• Create a Quest using the "Most Common vulnerabilities 3, 5 or 10" objective. This will provide each learner with the top 3, 5 or 10 vulnerabilities recommended by SCW for each of the language families they've chosen to learn about. 
• Create a Quest using the "PCI-DSS" objective type. This will provide learners with relevant content aligned with the PCI-DSS standard. We also provide a downloadable PDF which outlines the mapping between PCI requirement and the relevant vulnerabilities
• View reporting for both "Most Common vulnerabilities 3, 5 or 10" and "PCI-DSS" objectives
• View a breakdown of learner Accuracy per vulnerability topic in the Quests Report
