Welcome
Welcome to the documentation for HCL AppScan Standard version 10.4.0
Getting started
This section provides a short tour of basic product features and procedures, including using the wizard to set up a scan.
Configuration
You configure a scan by choosing settings that best describe your application, and the kind of testing you want.
Manual exploring
Manual exploring enables you to explore specific parts of your application, filling in fields and forms as you go. This can be a way of ensuring that particular areas of the site are covered, and that AppScan has the information needed to complete forms correctly.
Scanning
Learn how to start a scan, and what happens during the scan; how to manually manipulate the Explore stage, and how to export the results of a scan.
Data
Data view is populated with information about the structure of the site during the Explore stage of the scan.
Issues
Issues view provides access to the results of a scan. You can view results at a high level or select specific tests or objects and access more details. These details include how to fix, requests/responses, and differences between the test variants that resulted in issues. You can manipulate the severity of issues, resend tests (with or without modifications), and create reports based on Issues.

Industry Standard reports

The Industry Standards report lets you know if your application complies with standards of a selected industry committee.

About this task

The list of templates to choose from is updated by HCL as new standards are created for different industries and your AppScan is updated automatically on a regular basis.

If you do not find the industry standard that you need in the list, you can create your own Industry Standard report template (see User-defined reports).

The Industry Standard reports include the following sections:


Section Title	Information Presented
Description	Explanation of the standard.
Compliance Summary	List and count of non-compliance issues. Note that a single issue may indicate non-compliance of more than one section, and therefore the number of issues per section, for all the sections, may be more than the number of unique issues.
Unique Compliance Issues	List of non-compliant URLs, relevant parameters or cookies, and test names. Each issue appears once only.
Compliance Issues by Section	Detailed explanations of how your application is non-compliant, with remediation to address issues.

The figure below shows a sample of part of an Industry Standard Report.

Procedure

On the navigation bar, click Report > Industry Standard
Do one of the following:
