Report overview

After AppScan has assessed your site's vulnerability, you can generate customized reports configured for the various personnel in your organization; from developers, internal auditors, and penetration testers, to managers and executives.

There are five basic types of report, as described below. The Security Report includes many options that can be included or excluded depending on who the report is intended for.

You can open and view the reports from within AppScan, and you can save a report as a file to be opened with a third-party application, such as Acrobat Reader.
