About the Fortify ScanCentral SAST Controller

The Fortify ScanCentral SAST Controller (Controller) is a standalone server that sits between the Fortify ScanCentral SAST clients, sensors, and optionally, Fortify Software Security Center. The Controller accepts scan requests issued by clients and assigns them to an available sensor. A sensor returns scan results to the Controller, which stores them temporarily.
