# About automation

Here, we explain the more technical details about the automation engine, and how it works behind the scenes.

# Condition precedents

Rules can incorporate multiple OR and AND conditions. When using multiple conditions, the following precedents are applied:

  • AND conditions inherit previous if or OR condition
  • OR conditions do not inherit the previous if or OR condition

This means that creating a rule where a new dependency contains a vulnerability where:

  • CVSS is at least high AND
  • DebAI is at least 70

can be done with 3 rows, compared to a rule where a new dependency contains:

  • a vulnerability where CVSS is at least high OR
  • DebAI is at least 70 requires 4 rows.

Precedence example 1

If we try to construct the second rule using only 3 rows the rule will check for vulnerabilities where DebAI is at least low amongst existing dependencies.
