Add multiple targets

Creating a new target in Invicti Platform allows you to define a specific website or API  that you want to scan for vulnerabilities. Targets are the websites and web applications that you would like to scan using Invicti Platform. They can be added either from the Website Discovery page or directly from the Targets page.

This document guides you through the process of adding a new target, configuring its details, and preparing it for accurate and secure scanning. If you would like to create a single target, refer to the linked document.

Steps to add multiple targets

1. Select Inventory > Targets from the left-side menu.
2. Click the down arrow next to Create new target and select Create multiple targets.

3. Enter a name and the URL of the target.
4. By default, new targets use the Invicti Cloud Agent, which can scan any publicly available site without additional configuration. Choose the agent that best matches your scan environment and security requirements.

• Invicti Cloud agent (default): This is Invicti’s managed cloud-based agent, suitable for scanning publicly accessible websites. It requires no setup and is ideal for most internet-facing applications.
• Private agent: You can also use your own installed scan agent to scan internal or restricted environments not accessible from the public internet.

5. Assign the target to an environment (e.g., development, staging, production) to help organize and manage scans. Environments are defined in Settings > Environments and must be created there before use.
6. Select an application to group the target with related assets. Applications serve as central units for managing vulnerabilities and improving analysis across connected targets.
7. Choose a collection to organize the target based on business context or custom criteria. Collections support tailored security management and reporting.
8. Add tags to further group and filter targets. Submit each tag by pressing Enter after typing. Tags assist with quick identification, categorization, and filtering in reports and views.

9. Confirm the target creation by pressing Create target.

10. The Targets page is updated with your new targets.
