Users
User management allows you to control access to sensitive applications by assigning them to asset groups and then adding specific users to those groups.
Asset groups
Asset groups represent abstract components of your organization, like "Finance" or "Engineering." Administrators can restrict access to specific applications by assigning them to an asset group and limiting the users who belong in the group.

Getting started

- Users
  User management allows you to control access to sensitive applications by assigning them to asset groups and then adding specific users to those groups.
  - User roles
    Users are assigned to asset groups by an administrator. Predefined user roles cannot be deleted.
  - Asset groups
    Asset groups represent abstract components of your organization, like "Finance" or "Engineering." Administrators can restrict access to specific applications by assigning them to an asset group and limiting the users who belong in the group.
    - Creating an asset group and assigning resources
      Create an asset group, assign applications, and add users. This helps you restrict applications with sensitive information to only the users who need to see it.
    - Moving applications into asset groups
      Applications can belong in one asset group only. Move existing applications into new asset groups so that you can control who has access. You can move applications individually, or multi-select them and move as a batch.
- Applications
  An application is a collection of scans related to the same project. It can be a web site, a desktop app, a mobile app, a web service, or any component of an app. Applications enable you to asses risk, identify trends, and make sure that your project is compliant with industry and organization policies.
- Policies
  You can apply the predefined policies, as well as your own custom policies, to show only data for the issues that are relevant for you.
- DevOps
  Tools for incorporating AppScan 360° in your software development lifecycle.
- Personal scans
  A personal scan is a way of evaluating the relative security of an application in development without affecting overall application scan data (issues, for example), or compliance.
- Scan status
- Audit trail
  The audit trail (Organization > Audit trail) logs user activity.
Navigation
This section describes the items on the main AppScan 360° menu bar, with links to more detailed information.
Static analysis
Use static analysis (SAST) to scan for security vulnerabilities in web and desktop applications. Static analysis includes Intelligent Finding Analytics (IFA) and Intelligent Code Analytics (ICA).
Results
The Scan History tab of your application displays your scan results (including scan statistics) and rescan options.

Asset groups

Asset groups represent abstract components of your organization, like "Finance" or "Engineering." Administrators can restrict access to specific applications by assigning them to an asset group and limiting the users who belong in the group.

An application must belong to one and only one asset group. An asset group can own many applications.

Individual users can see applications and issues based on the asset groups they belong to. Trending charts in the dashboard display only data that is related to the apps that are owned by a group the user belongs to. A user can change the owner group property of an application if they are changing it to a group they belong to, or if they are an administrator.

An administrator can create asset groups and move the applications and users around to where they belong.
If you want to remove an asset group, you must remove the users and applications from it first. You will need to assign the applications to other asset groups.
If a user is not assigned to an asset group, they cannot create, edit, or view applications in the group.
The Access management > Asset groups page indicates the number of applications and users that belong to each asset group.
Administrators belong to all asset groups. They are identified as admins and included in the user count for each asset group.
When creating an application, you can associate it with an existing asset group that you belong to, or create a new asset group for it.
