Processing dynamic scan requests from Fortify WebInspect Enterprise

If you are in the role of Administrator or Application Security Tester, you can start Fortify WebInspect Enterprise, where you can view and process dynamic scan requests submitted by Application Security users.

To process dynamic scan requests in Fortify WebInspect Enterprise:

  1. From Fortify WebInspect Enterprise, initialize Application Security, and then use the WebInspect Enterprise Console to synchronize Application Security application versions with WebInspect projects (see the OpenText™ Fortify WebInspect Enterprise User Guide).
  2. From the Application Security Dashboard or the Applications view, select an application version for which a dynamic scan was requested, and then select Artifacts.

  3. On the ARTIFACTS page, click LAUNCH WIE.

  4. Under the header, click Scan Requests.

    The SCAN REQUESTS view lists all dynamic scan requests submitted from Application Security to Fortify WebInspect Enterprise.

  5. Select the pending request.

  6. In the lower pane, on the Details tab, from the Status list, select In Progress, and then click Change Status. In Application Security, users assigned to the application version can now see that the scan request is no longer pending.
  7. At the top of the view, click Create a Web Site Scan and complete the steps in the Scan Wizard to run the scan and upload the results to Application Security. For detailed instructions, see the OpenText™ Fortify WebInspect Enterprise User Guide.
