Disable a scan

Note:
  • Disabling a scan causes dashboard reporting errors after 24 hours.
  • IVA scans do not run if the Host Identification Scans checkbox is cleared.

Host Identification Scans and Vulnerability Scanning is required for normal operation. If needed, you can disable one or both of these types of scans.

  1. Sign in to the Risk Dashboard.
  2. In the navigation menu, click Config > Scanner Config.
  3. In the Scanner Configuration section, do one or both of these actions:
    • To temporarily disable IVA scanning, click the Vulnerability Scanning toggle to the on position.

      No new scans will run until you turn on the toggle again.

    • To disable host identification scans, click the Host Identification Scans toggle to the off position.
