Organization
Organization is your go-to hub for managing policies, domains, settings, subscriptions, and audit trails – it's where you control and organize it all.
DAST templates
The DAST templates feature streamlines the management and use of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) scan templates. You can upload AppScan Standard scan files (.scant) or DAST templates directly to ASoC. This centralizes templates and makes them available to all ASoC users for reuse, rather than storing them on individual desktops.

Getting started

- All applications
  The Applications page lists all applications in your organization that are within the asset groups to which you are assigned. From the Applications page, you can create new applications and open individual application pages.
- Scans and sessions
  This view lists all scans and sessions in all your applications.
- Open source libraries
  Search for, review, and take action on open source libraries associated with applications.
- Dashboard
  The main dashboard is the fourth item on the main menu bar. It gives you a detailed overview of active issues, MTTR issues, applications, and scans along with graphs and charts that display the overall state of your applications.
- Organization
  Organization is your go-to hub for managing policies, domains, settings, subscriptions, and audit trails – it's where you control and organize it all.
  - Compliance policies
    You can apply the predefined compliance policies, as well as your own custom compliance policies, to show only data for the issues that are relevant for you.
  - DAST templates
    The DAST templates feature streamlines the management and use of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) scan templates. You can upload AppScan Standard scan files (.scant) or DAST templates directly to ASoC. This centralizes templates and makes them available to all ASoC users for reuse, rather than storing them on individual desktops.
  - DAST test policies
    The test policies is a list of web application security scan settings. You can select one of the predefined test policies available when running scans from the ASoC user interface, but other policies can be applied with imported scans or scans run from the API. You can also upload custom test policies that you created in AppScan Standard and AppScan Enterprise.
  - DAST Domains
    Domains view lists the domains for which you have permission to run dynamic (DAST) scans. Based on your subscription, you are presented with either the Domain management page or the Domain verification page.
  - Settings
    Settings helps you navigate and configure the settings within your organization and data center effectively.
Administration
Define users, applications, policies, and configure DevOps integrations.
Dynamic analysis
AppScan on Cloud performs security scans for web-applications for production, staging and development environments. For development environments it is aided by Private Site Scanning technology to scan applications not accessible to the open Internet.
Interactive monitoring
Using an agent installed on your application, ASoC identifies security vulnerabilities in your application during runtime by monitoring all interactions, both legitimate and malicious. The process is "passive," in the sense that IAST does not send its own tests, and can therefore run indefinitely.
Software Composition Analysis
Use Software Composition Analysis (SCA) to scan for security vulnerabilities in open source and third-party packages used by your code. SCA includes Intelligent Finding Analytics (IFA) and Intelligent Code Analytics (ICA).
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 Scans and Sessions page lists the scans under the categories DAST, SAST, SCA, and IAST, where you can view your scan results, including scan statistics. To view, rescan, or download reports, select a scan.The Scans and Sessions page lists scans under the categories where you can view your scan results, including scan statistics.

DAST templates

The DAST templates feature streamlines the management and use of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) scan templates. You can upload AppScan Standard scan files (.scant) or DAST templates directly to ASoC. This centralizes templates and makes them available to all ASoC users for reuse, rather than storing them on individual desktops.

Template management is available to users with the Admin or Manager role. Each template can be associated with specific asset groups or with all asset groups. You can create a scan using a predefined template from the Create scan dialog if your application belongs to the asset group(s) associated with that template.
