Scan Templates

When you start a new scan, you pick a template from the gallery. Each template pre-configures the scan type and, for vulnerability scans, which check categories are included or excluded by default — you can still adjust any of it on the Checks and Advanced tabs before submitting.

Templates are grouped by purpose:

Vulnerability Detection

TemplateDescriptionPre-selected checks
Full ScanAll categories enabled, standard exclude list applied.All categories, except: Denial of Service, Fuzzing, Brute Force.
Web Application ScanDynamic application security testing for web targets.All categories (scoped to the HTTP protocol).
CVE ScanKnown CVE detection across common protocols.Known CVEs only.
KEVDetects vulnerabilities listed in the CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities catalog.CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities (KEV) only.
Default LoginsDetects default or weak vendor credentials on login panels.Default Credentials only.
MisconfigurationsExposed panels, misconfigurations and exposure checks.Misconfiguration, Exposed Admin Panels, Information Exposure.
Advanced ScanStart with no checks selected and choose exactly what to run.None — pick categories/checks manually on the Checks tab.

Reconnaissance

TemplateDescriptionPre-selected checks
Host DiscoveryDiscovers live hosts and open ports across a network range.N/A — this is a discovery scan, not a vulnerability scan, so it has no check categories. It runs against the top 1000 ports with open-port verification and banner grabbing enabled; see Advanced Settings.
Subdomain TakeoversDetects DNS entries pointing to deprovisioned or unclaimed cloud resources.Subdomain Takeover only.

Network & Infra

TemplateDescriptionPre-selected checks
Network / SSLNetwork-level and TLS/SSL checks.All categories, except: Denial of Service, Fuzzing, Brute Force.

Every template starting point can be refined further — uncheck a category, expand it to deselect individual checks, or switch to include mode and build the check list from scratch. See Advanced Settings for the full set of options.
