How to request a rescan & reaudit after fixing the found vulnerabilities?

Once you've fixed the found vulnerabilities during a Pentest, you can request a re-scan. During the rescan Astra's security engineers verify the fixes your engineers have put in place.

A couple of things to ensure before requesting a rescan

At least 50% of the vulnerabilities are fixed: This ensures that you make the most of the number of rescans available to you & security engineers are able to re-check maximum vulnerabilities in one go

Vulnerabilities are marked as fixed: Under each vulnerability there is an option to 'Ask for review', please ensure you've clicked on this for each vulnerability that you've fixed.

Once the above ones are done, here's how you can request a rescan

Steps to Request a Rescan

Navigate to the Manual Pentest section on your dashboard.

On the left side of the sectioned table, utilize the Go to Section feature to quickly jump to the Pentest List page without scrolling.
