We are excited to announce the availability of Enhanced Scan Windows for Tenable Web App Scanning!

We know that DAST assessments can take hours or even days to complete, making it difficult to scan production applications without impacting performance during peak traffic times. This update gives you the precision you need to scan continuously without conflict.

What’s New?

You can now define granular scan (green) or pause (red) windows for individual scans, separate from your global platform settings.

• Granular Control: Specify allowable scan times that span across multiple days.
• Flexible Scheduling: Set multiple distinct windows within a single day.
• Automated Progress: Scans automatically pause and resume based on your windows—no manual restarts required.

Why This Matters

This feature allows you to adopt a "set it and forget it" approach to production scanning. You can ensure your security assessments move forward efficiently during off-hours, completely avoiding your application's busiest windows.
