Login Page Identifier

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

The Login Page Identifier is a security check that detects all login pages.

Invicti crawls and attacks your website to discover all vulnerable points. To do that, it tries to find and follow all URLs in your website to populate the Sitemap. Thanks to this procedure, Invicti is also able to detect all login pages on your website. This feature is particularly useful if you find it difficult to keep track of a large number of websites.

This security check can be configured, by increasing or decreasing the weight of variables, such as password input and adding new keywords.

During the scan, Invicti analyses keywords that are specified in the Scan Policy for each page and calculates the weights that are attributed to different variables. If the total result exceeds the threshold value of 75, Invicti reports this webpage as a login page.

It is reported both in the Sitemap and Issues panel as an Information Alert.

The Login Page Identifier check is enabled by default.

For further information, see Scan Policy Fields, Security Checks, Configuring and Verifying Form Authentication in Invicti Enterprise, and Configuring Form Authentication in Invicti Standard.
