Alerts

Requires attention

What does it mean?

Login interference

We have detected what we think is a login page, and you may need to add authentication. If you have an app license available, you can do this immediately; if you don't, you'll need to purchase one.

API detected

We have detected an API in your AWS account and believe that the addition of an API schema could improve scan coverage.

Web interference

We have detected a WAF that we believe could be adversely impacting your scans. To ensure full scanning, you'll need to add our scanning ranges (for your chosen region) to your allowlist.

Permissions missing:

We have detected an authentication issue. To enable authenticated scanning, please verify your target's authentication credentials.

If you filter by 'Requires attention' and roll your mouse over the information icon, you'll see what the alert refers to.

Login form detected - may require an authentication to be fully scanned:

Requires an API schema to be fully scanned:

Web Application Firewall (WAF) detected:

Permissions missing:

If you click on the target and navigate to:

  • The Authentications tab: you'll be shown the evidence and will have the option to either 'Add authentication' or Ignore recommendation'.

  • The APIs tab: you'll be shown the evidence and will have the option to either 'Add API Schema' or Ignore recommendation'

  • The first page: you'll see the banner at the top of the page: ​

If you choose to ignore the recommendation, you're prompted to add details and submit:

Once that's done, it'll show up under:

  • The Authentications tab, as shown below.
    (You can always Undo ignore recommendation and add authentication at a later date – if you wish.)

  • The APIs tab, as shown below.

Target type

Target type

Description

External

Any target that has a public-facing IP address, domain, or subdomain

Internal

Any device supporting Windows, Linux, or macOS.

Web app

Any target added as an external web application.

Cloud account

Any AWS, GCP, or Azure cloud account.


Web app

Authentication/API

Description

Authenticated

Any external web application target that has an authentication method. (If a target is added as an external web application without any credentials, we'll automatically add some dummy credentials!)

Unauthenticated

Any external web application target that does not have an authentication method.

Has API

Any web application that has an API schema applied.


Licenses

License type

Description

Infrastructure

Allows users to conduct external scanning on IP addresses, domains, and subdomains; as well as internal scanning on devices supporting Windows, Linux, or macOS.

Application

The Application license covers infrastructure scanning, enhanced web-app scanning of unauthenticated pages, authenticated web-app scanning (pages behind the login), as well as API scanning (where users have uploaded a schema file).

Not Assigned

This will only apply to external infrastructure targets, as application licenses are assigned as soon as the web app is added, and infrastructure licenses are assigned as soon as internal targets are linked.


Cloud monitoring

Monitoring status

Description

Monitored

Cloud security scans have been enabled, and the cloud account is being monitored for security risks and vulnerabilities.

Unmonitored

Cloud security scans have not been enabled, and the cloud account is not being monitored for security risks and vulnerabilities.


FAQs

How do I trigger login detection?

This check is run as part of the first scan kicked off on a target after it's been added, so you can't trigger it per se.

Can I get a second login detection if I delete the target and re-add?

Unfortunately not. When you re-add a previously deleted target, the scan history will be reinstated, which will include the scan where we checked the target for a login page.

What type of targets does it run on?

It'll run on external targets that don't already have an application license assigned.
