HTTP authentication

Web servers may require users to authenticate themselves, presenting the user with a dialog to fill in a username and password. This information is sent to the web server in the "Authorization: Basic" header.

If your Target requires this type of authentication, you can specify the login URL, username and password in the fields provided for Invicti Platform to use when it encounters an HTTP Authentication request by the web server. You can configure your Target by doing the following:

1. Select Inventory > Targets from the left-side menu.
2. Locate the target you would like to amend, using the 3-dots menu, select Edit target.
3. Select Authentication from the menu.
4. Select HTTP (Basic, Digest, NTLM, and Kerberos) as Authentication method.

5. Enter URL, username, and password.

6. Save the target configuration to confirm.
