Suspending, pausing, and resuming scans

You can manage your scans in Invicti Enterprise thanks to a scan control center. This center allows you to suspend scans, pause all active scans, and resume all paused scans with a single click. 

This topic explains how to suspend all active scans, pause active scans, and resume all paused scans.

Administrator and account owner can access this setting. OR, team members with the Edit General Settings and Edit Scan State permissions can access this setting.

How to access the Scan Control options

1. Log in to Invicti Enterprise.
2. From the main menu, select Settings > General.

How to suspend all future scans

1. Log in to Invicti Enterprise.
2. From the main menu, select Settings > General.
3. Select Suspend all future scans.
4. Select Save to apply the change.

When selected, all new and scheduled scans will be queued. All active scans will be completed. No team member can launch any scans until the option is deselected.

How to pause active scans

1. Log in to Invicti Enterprise.
2. From the main menu, select Settings > General.
