Scan password-protected and internal pages

Introduction

The scan is a powerful tool that scans all pages of a website. The configurations that are explained in this document may require the help of an advanced website administrator with HTML knowledge.

This document provides instructions for admin users on how to configure password-protected pages for the scan.

Note

It is not possible to scan websites that are hosted internally, for example, sites that can only be accessed from within a private network, and which are not accessible from the public internet. These are different from password-protected pages that are on the internet but require a login, and can be reached by the public (for example, a page behind a login screen on a public website). It does not apply to internal-only sites that are completely isolated from the internet.
