  • Hostname: Group targets according to their respective hostnames.
  • Organizations: Sort targets based on the organizations they belong to.

• Default View: If no sorting option is applied, targets will be displayed based on the most recent activity.

Target Configuration

• Quick Scan: Use the Quick Scan icon to start a new scan using existing configurations. You can choose a previously saved login sequence or create a new one directly from this section.

Refer How to perform an Authenticated Scan with Login Sequence? guide for more information.

Host-Based Targets

In some cases, a single domain may host multiple independent sections of an application like example.com/admin and example.com/client. These sections might not be directly linked or accessible through the same navigation path but still exist under the same root domain.

Host-Based Targets allow you to manage and scan such isolated areas within the same domain as separate scan entities. This is especially useful when different parts of the application serve different user groups or business functions but share the same hostname.

When using Host-Based Targets:

• You can define and scan different applications of the same host independently.
• For example, example.com/admin and example.com/client can each be scanned as their own target.
• Each scan needs to be triggered separately scans will not run in parallel.

Host-Based Targets make it easier to manage different applications under the same host name, This allows testing different applications of the same domain without setting up entirely separate targets.

Now that your targets are set up, it's time to run your first scan! Head over to the Quick Scan Guide to begin your journey toward better application security.
