About this task

Scan configurations can be used to create a new scan in AppScan® Enterprise to work with them there.

Procedure

  1. Open the scan that contains the configuration you want to use.
  2. Click AppScan Connect > AppScan Enterprise > Create scan in AppScan Enterprise.
    The AppScan Enterprise login dialog-box opens.
  3. Configure your AppScan Enterprise sign-in information:
    To sign in with a User ID and Password:
    1. Select Login with User ID & Password.
    2. In the URL field, enter the AppScan Enterprise server's service URL.

      Format: https://[AppScan Enterprise Server]:[Server port]/ase

    3. Enter a valid User ID (with the format [domain name]\[username]) and Password.
    4. Click Login.
    To sign in using a client-side certificate or smart card:
    1. Select Log in using client-side certificate / Smart Card.
    2. In the URL field, enter the AppScan Enterprise server's service URL.

      Format: https://[AppScan Enterprise Server]:[Server port]/ase

    3. From the Certificate drop-down, select a certificate.
    4. Click Login.
      Note: If you need to log in using a Smart Card PIN code, a dialog box will open where you can enter the code.
  4. In the Create scan in AppScan Enterprise dialog box:
    1. Define a job name.
    1. Select the folder where the scan must be created. Alternatively, you can also enter the folder path of an existing folder. For example, Scans\Users\Admin.
      Note: Scan template folders are not shown.
    2. Select a test policy from the drop-down menu.
      Important: To create a scan in your AppScan Enterprise account, you need to have a test policy defined for your account. If there is no test policy defined, you can assign or create a test policy in AppScan Enterprise. Alternatively, you can connect through an account that already has a test policy assigned.
    3. Optionally, you can select the application with which you want to associate the scan. Alternatively, you can search for the application and then select it.
  5. Click Create.
    Once a scan is created, it will automatically start running in AppScan Enterprise. You can monitor the progress of the scan by going to the Scans tab in AppScan Enterprise. After the scan is complete, you can access the scan results and fix any vulnerabilities found in your application.
