  • A technical summary.

  • Information about vulnerabilities (impact, causes, and prevention methods).

PCI-DSS v.4.0.1 and v.3.2.1

It is a target scan report specific to PCI-DSS compliance. You can use any of these reports to verify which controls a target is passing or failing in the respective PCI-DSS version. The PCI-DSS report is similar to the Standard report but adds a section to the scan summary with the PCI-DSS requirements checklist.

Probely indicates if a target was tested for the requirements checklist and if it passed each item on the list.

OWASP Top 10

It is similar to the PCI-DSS report but considers the most recent OWASP Top 10. OWASP Top 10 uses a popular framework provided by OWASP that lists the top 10 security risks of web applications. Auditors often use this framework when performing a company's security audit.

Probely indicates if a target was tested for the requirements checklist and if it passed each item on the list.

ISO 27001

It is a specific target scan report on compliance with ISO/IEC 27001 (2022 revision). You can use this report to verify which controls a target is passing or failing. ISO 27001 is similar to the Standard report but adds a section to the scan summary with the ISO 27001 requirements checklist.

Probely indicates if a target was tested for the requirements checklist and if it passed each item on the list.

HIPAA

It is a specific target scan report on HIPAA compliance. You can use this report to verify which controls a target is passing or failing. HIPAA is similar to the Standard report but adds a section to the scan summary with the HIPAA requirements checklist.

Probely indicates if a target was tested for the requirements checklist and if it passed each item on the list.

You don't need to start a target scan again to issue a new type of report. Just choose the desired type to generate and download it.
