Acunetix Summary

The integration of Acunetix vulnerability management with the Centraleyezer Vulnerability Management platform enhances the import and management of security findings. This collaboration enables organizations to efficiently identify, prioritize, track, and remediate vulnerabilities, thereby improving their overall security posture and risk management.

Acunetix Key Features

  • Data Import:

    • Import applications, scan summaries, and vulnerabilities from Acunetix security tools into Centraleyezer, either on-demand or via automated schedules.

    • Supported formats: API, XML, JSON.

  • Detailed Findings:

    • Centraleyezer provides comprehensive request/response details for vulnerabilities detected by Acunetix tools.

  • Risk Scoring:

    • Configurable severity values for Acunetix findings, adjustable based on organizational risk policies.

  • Selective Data Import:

    • Supports filtering based on status, scan type, and severity for more precise data imports.

  • Secure Connectivity:

    • Requires an HTTPS connection, with or without a proxy.

Considerations

  • The integration supports mapping one Acunetix security tool instance with one Centraleyezer instance.

  • Configuring a different Acunetix instance in the plugin will overwrite previously imported data.

Requirements

  • System Requirements:

    • Centraleyezer Prerequisites: Latest version of the Centraleyezer Vulnerability Management Platform recommended.

    • Acunetix Tool Prerequisites: API access must be enabled with proper authentication and must support export of vulnerability findings and API-based integration.

  • Permissions and Roles:

    • Centraleyezer: Requires System Admin or Application Security Manager permissions.

    • Acunetix Security Tools: User access for vulnerability scan information.

    • Import mappings require admin-level permissions.
