Limiting the size of a Security report
Security reports can be large. During report generation, you might receive a warning message that the file is hundreds of pages long, or the report creation process might time out. Try the following tips to reduce report size.
Procedure
- One way of reducing report size is to limit the report to a part of the application. Filter and group the issue list before you select the issues you want to report.
- If you see that your application contains thousands of issues, consider generating an Executive Summary only.
- Select only the issue attributes that are relevant to your audience. By default, all of the available issue attributes are selected for reporting.
- Verify that the DAST Variants setting is "1", so that no more than a single variant is included for each issue.
- Including the Request/Response and Advisories and Fix Recommendations can add many pages to reports. Select these options only if needed.
