  - Summarizing issues in report packs
    A report pack is a bundle of reports that summarizes the issues discovered within its reports and provides a window into those reports. The reports themselves contain the details of the issues found on your website or application.
  - Organizing report and dashboard results for analysis
    A tremendous amount of powerful data is delivered through the reports. But not every organization wants to review their data in exactly the same way as everybody else. Flexible viewing mechanisms help you organize how you review your issues in whatever way makes the most sense to you.
    - Grouping report data
      Grouping report results by different data sets (such as page, or context or IP address) helps make the report data more relevant to your analysis needs.
    - Searching report data
      You can search for specific issues or information within each report's results. For example, you might want to find all the issues within a certain directory of the Page URL. Or you might want to track a particular issue throughout your remediation process; enter the Issue ID in the Search tab to locate it within the relevant report.
    - Identifying pages with identical URLs in reports
      When your report contains a list of identical URLs, it is likely because your site uses static URLs. In these cases, the page content can be determined through the use of either POST data or cookie information.
    - Managing issues in a report
      All issues are classified as open by default. You can see an issue classification by grouping by Issue Status.
    - Exporting data for offline analysis
      Exporting report data is useful if you have team members that do not directly access the Enterprise Console; you can export the report data to an XML file, Excel spreadsheet, pdf or CSV file for them to use.
    - Correlating static analysis data with dynamic analysis data
      Import data from AppScan® Source to correlate its findings with an existing dynamic analysis security scan (AppScan Enterprise Server content scan job or an AppScan Standard import job).

        Authentication Points report
        This report shows you where the authentication points (the applications that validate a user's credentials) are located on your website. It provides a summary of the authentication points found, including a total for all the types found, and the number of each authentication type found.
        Broken Links report
        This report provides information about broken links found on the site.
        File Inventory report
        This report displays an inventory of the distinct URLs and the PageComponents that use them. A PageComponent is a file that makes up part of a web page, such as an HTML file, an image or an MS Word document. Many web pages can use the same PageComponent; for example, a corporate logo that can display throughout the site or a navigation toolbar inside a frame. For each URL in the list, information is provided about the rendered file size, Mime type and last modified date. You can use this report to identify files that do not conform to your corporate standards or that might cause searchability or accessibility problems.
        Filtered Links report
        This report displays the links that were filtered from the scan and provides an explanation. It displays the same information as the scan log, but in a format that can be searched and sorted after the scan has completed.
        Hosts report
        This report provides you with the number and type of hosts that have web servers. The hosts are categorized by domain and by operating system. The Hosts report tells you what machines are publicly accessible through your Internet or Intranet.
        Local Files report
        This report provides information about any links on your website that point to files on your local server. There are two ways you can refer to a document within an HREF attribute: absolutely or relatively. An absolute link defines the location of the document, including the protocol to use to get the document, the server to get it from, the directory it is located in, and the name of the document itself. A relative link takes advantage of the fact that the server knows where the current document is.
        Pages report
        This report provides an inventory of the pages found during a content scan, including the page name, size, title and Mime type.
        Pages with Unfilled Forms
        This report shows you the forms that were not completed by the automatic form fill. Do a manual explore to complete them in so that the scan can continue through the site to discover as much content as possible.

        Website Architecture report
        This report provides an inventory of the unique internal domains found during a content scan to help you understand the overall size and scope of your website.
    - Track progress with executive dashboards
      Use the dashboard to track and consolidate the severity metrics and trends of your web applications or website over time. You can combine data from different business areas (such as sales, marketing, or products), specific issue types, or developers so you can see a complete picture of your web properties or applications. Security analysts or web managers can use this high-level view to quickly study interactive reports about the issues.

Pages with Unfilled Forms

This report shows you the forms that were not completed by the automatic form fill. Do a manual explore to complete them in so that the scan can continue through the site to discover as much content as possible.

Why it matters

If the scan misses pages, it might be missing vulnerabilities and issues that can be critical to fix. Compare the results with the Form Inventory report to see a bigger picture. For example, if the Form Inventory report indicates that there are 26 forms on 18 pages, but the Pages with Unfilled Forms report indicates that 10 pages have forms that were not submitted, that can result in many areas of the site not being scanned and tested for vulnerabilities or issues.
