Add New Scanners

Although vulnerability scanning is a highly unified procedure, different scanners may capture different vulnerabilities. Some scanners are developed to act in a more severe way than others to meet specific compliance requirements. Nonetheless, adding more scanners may increase the general coverage and improve your cyber security.
To add a new scanner:

• Expand Administration;
• Go to Interrogation Services;
• On the Scanners tab, click + New Scanner;

• Fill in the form:
  • Give your scanner a name;
  • Optionally, add a description;
  • Enter the endpoint URL or IP address (if you are using an internal server);
  • Choose your authorization method:
    • For Basic one, enter your username and password which you received from the scanner provider;
    • For Bearer, enter the secret token from your provider;
    • For API key, enter the API key from your account on the scanner service provider.
  • Choose if you want to activate certificate verification;
  • If you entered an IP instead of an URL, select Use internal registry address to allow this.

• Test the new connection and save the scanner if it was successful.
