Managing Scan Templates
A scan template enables the users to save and reuse a set of scan settings so that they can start another scan more quickly. Bright provides a list of preconfigured scan templates to help the users assess their vulnerabilities quicker and more efficiently.
- OWASP Top 10 for Web Apps (2021) – The engine runs only the tests for the vulnerabilities included into the "OWASP Top 10" list for 2021.
- PCI DSS - The engine runs only the tests for the vulnerabilities included into the PCI Data Security Standard.
- WordPress - The engine runs only WordPress-relevant tests.
- OWASP Top 10 (2017) – The engine runs only the tests for the vulnerabilities included into the "OWASP Top 10" list for 2017.
- MITRE Top 25 (2019) – The engine runs only the tests for the vulnerabilities included into the "MITRE Top 25" list for 2019.
- MITRE Top 25 (2020) – The engine runs only the tests for the vulnerabilities included into the "MITRE Top 25" list for 2020.
- API Scan – Predefined tests that are relevant for API targets.
- Light Scan – This is a preconfigured optimized scan, during which the engine automatically determines which tests to run, based on the data types that are detected. Some tests will be skipped in favor of speed.
- Deep Scan – All possible tests are performed during the scan. This is the most thorough scan, which takes the longest time to complete.
- Passive Scan – The engine selects only host-based passive tests to be run.
