AppScan eXtensions Framework & Community Portal

Designed to share the power of AppScan with its users, AppScan eXtensions Framework (AXF) enables boundless customization and extensibility of the leading web application security scanner. AXF is a flexible framework that lets users load or even create add-ons to extend AppScan's functionality. Coupled with Pyscan, a new AppScan Python-Scripting based web application security testing platform, security professionals can now extend and create their own custom testing solutions that use the core technology of AppScan to accomplish specific security-related tasks.

AppScan Community Portal

AppScan eXtensions Framework

Accompanying the AppScan eXtensions Framework is a community portal (http://axf.watchfire.com/), where AppScan users can download eXtensions to expand the functionality of AppScan and where developers can create their own eXtensions and add functionality to address evolving security testing challenges. This portal also provides information on writing eXtensions, instructions on how to submit ideas or additional eXtensions and more. All third-party eXtensions submitted to the site will be governed by the open-source Apache License, version 2.0.

Sample AppScan eXtensions immediately available for download include:

  • QA Defect Loggers - Export security defects into leading quality assurance issue-tracking systems including:
