Scans and sessions

This view lists all scans and sessions in all your applications and provides visual analytics charts for monitoring scan metrics and trends across DAST, SAST, and SCA technologies.

Tip:
The main Scans page lists all scans in all your applications. To view scans for a specific application, select Applications > Application page > Scans and sessions.

Admin metrics and visual analytics

The Scans and sessions page for DAST, SAST, and SCA provides administrators with key metrics and charts. It shows the current number of queued scans and scans under review, and includes 7-day charts for average and maximum queue duration.

Bulk delete scans

You can delete multiple scans at once using the Bulk Delete option. This feature is especially useful when Auto Cleanup is disabled for an application and older scans must be removed manually. For example, when the application reaches the 2,000‑scan limit and new scans cannot be started until older ones are deleted.

A select checkbox is available in the Scans & Sessions page at both the organization and application levels, allowing you to select multiple scans for deletion. After selecting the scans, click Delete and confirm the action in the dialog. Deleting scans from the application‑level Scans & Sessions page is recommended to ensure you are working within the correct application context.

You can delete up to 100 scans in a single action. After a scan is deleted, its associated issues are removed asynchronously. Issue cleanup may take one to two minutes, and the UI displays an indication while this process is in progress.
