Recovering Deleted Items
When you remove a session or "ignore" a vulnerability, Fortify WebInspect deletes the item from the Navigation pane (in both the Site and Sequence views) and from the Findings tab in the Summary pane. It also omits those items from any reports you may generate.
The number of deleted items is displayed on the Dashboard (under the Scan category). To recover removed sessions and ignored vulnerabilities:
-
Click the highlighted number that appears next to the Deleted Items header.
The Recover Deleted Items window displays a list of deleted items.
-
Click the drop-down list to toggle between ignored vulnerabilities and removed sessions.
-
Select the check box next to one or more items you want to recover.
-
To view detailed information about the items, select Show details when selected.
-
Click Recover and then click Yes when prompted to verify your selection.
Recovered vulnerabilities reappear in the Navigation pane in both the Site and Sequence views (along with their parent sessions) and also reappear in the Findings tab in the Summary pane. Recovered sessions also reappear in the Navigation pane along with any child sessions and their vulnerabilities.
