Managing Web Application Scan​

Overview​

Learn how to manage, edit, monitor, and delete web application scans in DeepTraQ. This guide also covers how to view detailed job statuses, download security reports, and access vulnerability findings.

Prerequisites​

  • At least one Web application Scan created

Steps​

Viewing and Running Scans​

  1. Navigate to your scan dashboard. This section displays all the scans you have created, organized as projects.
  2. Click the Run button next to a project to trigger an on-demand security scan.
  3. Use the Refresh button to update the scan status and see whether it is running, completed, or failed.

Monitoring Jobs​

  1. Click the arrow button next to a scan to expand the view.
  2. Review the specific job details. The total number of jobs depends on your scan settings and target count, with each job representing a set of security checks running against a specific group of targets.
  3. Check the overall scan status icon (completed, partially successful, or failed) and the count showing the total number of jobs created for that scan.

Editing a Scan​

  1. Click the three-dot menu next to the scan you want to modify and select Edit.
  2. Modify the project details as needed. For example, you can switch the underlying scanner engine to ZAP.
  3. Click Save to apply your changes.

Downloading Reports and Viewing Findings​

  1. Click the download icon next to a scan to generate and share a report.
  2. Select your preferred report type and format, then click the Download button.
  3. To investigate the actual security issues, click directly on the project name. This will take you immediately to the Vulnerabilities tab for that specific scan.

Deleting a Scan​

  1. Click the three-dot menu on the scan you wish to remove and select Delete.
  2. Type Delete in the confirmation pop-up.
  3. Click Delete to permanently remove the scan and its associated data from the dashboard.
