AppScan Extensions Framework


What are AppScan eXtensions?

AppScan eXtensions are software add-ons that extend new functionality to AppScan. They can add anything from a minor utility that performs a simple task, to a full blown application that performs many complex actions. By Using eXtensions, users can customize AppScan to their own needs, just the way they like it. Here are some examples of things you can perform using the AppScan eXtensions Framework:

  1. Make AppScan better fit your process (e.g. export results to defect tracking systems, write your own report export format, etc.)
  2. Add small features to AppScan (e.g. send Email/Pager/SMS notifications)
  3. Innovate big features to make AppScan perform new things for you (e.g. compare files found by AppScan to files on server, to see if you missed some and improve your coverage)
  4. Package your own proprietary expertise into the automated process (e.g. exploit when issue is found)
  5. Just have fun (e.g. Make AppScan vocalize different events, or open a game of Solitaire while a scan is running)
