What is a Target?
A target is a website, web application, server, or network device that you would like to scan for security vulnerabilities. In general, a target license is required for each web application and for each domain. To run a security scan on a web asset using Invicti Enterprise, you need to add the web asset as a target.
Invicti Enterprise defines a target as a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). An FQDN is the complete domain name for a specific target and consists of two parts: the hostname and the domain name.
The below examples are considered to be 1 website as they share the same FQDN.
- http://example.com
- https://example.com
- http://www.example.com
- http://www.example.com/test
Subdomains and ports share the same FQDN but are considered to be different websites. For example:
- http://example.com
- http://test.example.com
- http://example.com:81
- http://api.example.com
