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.
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.
This section provides instructions on how to set up user credentials so that the crawler can access and scan protected pages on your website.
Click Action on the same row as the domain that you want to scan and select Edit Domain from the expanded list of options.
The system opens the Edit a domain page.
Scroll to the Login Type section.
Select Login Type: Click to view the options and select Form.
The Form fields section expands.
Input Selector: Enter the CSS selector that identifies the input selector of the form field or button, for example, #username or #password.
"Name" can only be used if the name is unique.
"ID" is usually unique and the preferred choice.
Click Save.
The system closes the Edit Domain page.
The pages are now set up and are included in the next on-demand or scheduled scan.
Office 365 and Basic Auth require the registered email or username and password.
Custom logins may require help from a developer or web team member for the initial setup.
