Excluded paths and files
You can configure AppScan to ignore certain paths in the application, or specific types of file.
However, you must apply exclusions with caution, as they might have important vulnerabilities. Changes here apply only to request-based exploring, not action-based exploring which is configured in Configuration > Explore options > Explore method.
