Adding a Target

This document is for:
Invicti Enterprise On-Demand, Invicti Enterprise On-Premises

To run a security scan on a website or other web asset using Invicti Enterprise, you need to add the website as a target. This document explains how to add a target to Invicti Enterprise.

TIP: If you have many targets to add, you can do a bulk import using a CSV file. For more information, refer to Importing Targets.

How to add a target

IMPORTANT: Once you add a target, it will immediately use a license.

  1. Log in to Invicti Enterprise.
  2. Select Targets > New Target from the left-side menu.

  1. Enter a Name for the target.
  2. Enter the URL of the web asset. It must include ‘http’ or ‘https'.
  3. Optionally, enter a Description to provide additional information for the target.

  1. In the Target Groups section, optionally select additional target groups to help organize your targets. By default, all new targets are added to the Default target group. For more information, refer to Managing Target Groups.

  1. Select an appropriate Technical Contact from the drop-down list of users on your Invicti Enterprise account. When the target is scanned, discovered issues will be assigned to this person, who will receive notifications about the new issues.

  1. Optionally, enter up to 20 Tags. These are usually labels to group or give additional context to targets. For more information, refer to Tagging in Invicti Enterprise.
  2. In Invicti Enterprise On-Demand only, there is an additional field: Agent Mode. Select either Cloud or Internal. If Cloud is selected, your target will be scanned by the agents installed on Invicti Enterprise's servers. If Internal is selected, your target will be scanned by an agent that you should download and install on your network. 
  3. Click Save. 

Your new target is now added and can be viewed on the Targets > Targets page. On this page, you have a list of all your targets which you can scan, as well as access for editing and deleting targets. For more information, refer to Managing Targets.
