WAS — Scans Overview
Overview
The Scans dashboard lists every executed or scheduled scan across all WAS projects.For each scan, you can quickly determine:
- Scan status (Completed / Running / Failed)
- Total rules executed
- Progress (executed vs. total rules)
- Vulnerability counts (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
- Execution timestamp
- Available scan actions (rescan, delete)
Key Metrics Displayed
