Knowledge Base Report

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

In Invicti Enterprise and Invicti Standard, the Knowledge Base Report provides detailed information about the scan.

The scanner enables you to discover attack surfaces and perform security testing. It lists vulnerabilities and issues, grouped by severity. It also lists additional and useful information about the scan to highlight other potential security issues. These issues are not classified as vulnerabilities but still can help attackers tailor attacks against your web application.

  • You can access that information in Invicti Standard and Invicti Enterprise from the Knowledge Base tab.
  • If you want all that information in a single document, you can generate the Knowledge Base Report in HTML or PDF formats.
