Coverage Over Time Calculation

Learn how Outcomes Navigator creates the Coverage Over Time chart on the Organizational Coverage tab.

The Coverage Over Time chart depicts the Use Case Coverage Score for a specific use case, MITRE Coverage Score for a specific MITRE ATT&CK® technique, Control Coverage Score for a specific compliance control, or OWASP Risk Coverage Score for a specific security risk over the past six months. Each bar of the chart represents the average coverage score for each month.[19]

To get the monthly average, Outcomes Navigator calculates the coverage score for each use case, ATT&CK technique, security control, and security risk once per day. First, Outcomes Navigator checks if it has started calculating the average coverage score for the month. If not, Outcomes Navigator starts a new calculation for the month. If it has already started a calculation, Outcomes Navigator updates the existing calculation.

The monthly average coverage score is calculated by:

Equation 24. 
A=M+DN+1A=\frac{M+D}{N+1}


where A is the monthly average, M is the existing sum of coverage scores calculated during the month, D is the new coverage score calculated that day, and N is the number of times the coverage score was calculated that month. If Outcomes Navigator is starting a new calculation for the month, M is zero.
