Overview of Scan Profiles in Invicti Enterprise

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

As you launch web application security scans in Invicti Enterprise, you can configure the scan settings manually. But, since many scans are necessary, it would be inefficient to manually configure the same settings each time. Scan Profiles enable you to save scan settings for future scans. Scan Profiles can be reconfigured at any time.

Scan profile settings

These are the scan settings you can add to a scan profile:

  • Target URL
  • Scan Policy
  • Report Policy
  • Custom Cookies
  • Crawling Information
  • Scan Scope and Excluded URLs
  • Additional Websites
  • Imported Links
  • URL Rewrite
  • Scan Time Window
  • Notifications
  • PCI Scans
  • Authentication Settings
  • Scan Tags

NOTE: Scan Profiles apply only to single website scans. They cannot be used for group or multiple website scans.

For more information on scan profiles in Invicti Enterprise, refer to Configuring Scan Profiles in Invicti Enterprise.
