Netsparker Enterprise Connector Guide

Summary: How to set up the Netsparker Enterprise connector.

Netsparker Enterprise Connector Overview

Netsparker is an automated online web application security scanner that enables users to identify security flaws by exploiting identified vulnerabilities. Netsparker then assigns a severity level to these vulnerabilities to convey the urgency and potential damage of a specific security weakness. Ivanti Neurons RBVM/ASPM/VULN KB offers an API-based connector that integrates the Netsparker module into the Neurons RBVM/ASPM/VULN KB platform for simplicity and flexibility. The Netsparker connector ingests application data from Netsparker and displays the vulnerabilities in the Neurons RBVM/ASPM/VULN KB platform for further prioritization.

Connector Configuration

On the Settings (Settings Menu - Gear - Small) > Uploads page, Netsparker data is parsed from the scan file and displayed on the Applications and Application Findings pages.

Note: The Netsparker Enterprise API connector pulls issues based on the policy, and False Positive, Fixed, and Risk Accepted issues are filtered out. There is also a deduping process that completes before presenting Netsparker data in the Neurons RBVM/ASPM/VULN KB platform. For repeated vulnerabilities with the same URL and plugin ID, Ivanti Neurons presents it as a single finding with multiple requests and responses.
