Optimizing your scan with advanced configuration options
Use this task to configure an advanced scan with complex configuration. Use this method for web applications that require a lot of user interaction to navigate the application or if you would like to just test a specific area of your application.
Handling login and logout pages
Configure how the scan handles the login and logout pages of a web application. Use a login sequence to follow a complex login process or enter regular expressions for detecting logout pages that the scan will encounter. Logout pages are identified to prevent the scan from logging out of the application or website prematurely.
Logging into an application using credentials
You can configure the username and password credentials so that the scan uses them automatically to log into an application.

Logging into an application using credentials

You can configure the username and password credentials so that the scan uses them automatically to log into an application.

About this task

If you are creating a QuickScan template, you must enter a user name and password because QuickScan users will not be able to do so.

Go to the Login Management page of the content scan job and select the Automatic option.
Enter the username and password used to log in to the application. The value will be used by any of the user name-like parameters that are identified in the regular expression. Both query string and post data parameters are checked.
(Optional) Expand the Advanced section.
Click Save.
