As part of the security analysis workflow, SOX integrates a web-based module to create structured report documents. These include text, tables, images as well as content generated in the SOX client. Such content can easily be imported into any report by dragging and dropping. Using the HTML Export, your report is available for printing and export to PDF.

The function of the Report Editor will be briefly demonstrated below. For a more detailed tutorial, kindly refer to C-SOX Report Designer.

Text and Graphic Content

Every report is organized in multiple blocks, which can be created, edited and deleted independently. The number and size of each block is in the user’s discretion. As a useful analogy, blocks correspond to chapters and subchapters within a document.

PSS Content

You can add any form of content created in the RCP Client, such as Safety Goals and Diagrams via drag-and-drop from the PSS-view.

Templates and Placeholder

You can create standardized reports over multiple projects via templates. In your template, you can add Placeholders which allow you to export predefined, filtered data in your reports. You can display data from the categories Function, Malfunction, Safety Goals, Security Goals, Requirements, System Elements, Hazards, and Diagnosis.

HTML Export / Printing

You can export a report using the EXPORT HTML button in the Report Designer. This way, you can either print out your report or export it as a PDF file.
