Domains

Domain Whitelist

The Domain Whitelist feature allows you to explicitly specify which domains (including subdomains) are allowed for scanning. Only whitelisted domains will be included in vulnerability tests, even if additional domains are discovered during crawling.

Key Features:

  • Add specific domains to allow scanning

  • Support for wildcard patterns

  • Ensures scans stay within the authorised scope

  • Discovered domains outside the whitelist are automatically excluded

Wildcard Pattern Examples:

example.com - Matches exactly example.com
*.example.com - Matches all subdomains (api.example.com, app.example.com, etc.)
*.dev.example.com - Matches all sub-subdomains under dev (test.dev.example.com, staging.dev.example.com)

Domain Blacklist

The Domain Blacklist allows you to explicitly exclude specific domains from scanning. Any domains added to the blacklist will be completely ignored during assessments.

Key Features:

  • Explicitly exclude domains from scanning

  • Support for wildcard patterns

  • Overrides whitelist settings

  • Useful for excluding third-party services or sensitive areas

Wildcard Pattern Examples:

Important Notes:

  • Blacklist takes precedence over whitelist

  • Wildcards apply to all matching subdomains

  • Use carefully to avoid excluding critical test targets

  • Both whitelist and blacklist support complex wildcard patterns for flexible scope control
