How do I get started scanning a web application?

To set up a web application scanning, go through these steps.

1. Install a Scanner Appliance

A Scanner Appliance is used for scanning within your local networks, behind your firewall. If you wish to scan publicly available web apps, you normally use our external/cloud scanners. If you're only scanning publicly available web apps, you can skip this step.

4. Schedule or run only once

Schedule a scan based on the profile, or run a scan once. You must do this for each web application you want to scan.
