Create new product

Product creation is an essential step to perform before scanning.

Product is a "folder" within Defect Dojo, where scan results will be stored. Each product contains Engagements which could be treated as "subfolders". Both will be created by ScanSuite based on the product name specified.

Give it a unique product name, it will not be possible to create 2 products with the same name:

Once the product is created, the respective Engagement ID can be found in the Scan History tab.

This ID will be used as a reference for the scan results storage in Defect Dojo:

Engagement ID will be saved and auto filled in the scanning forms so no need to memorize it all the time.

However it is important to check it during further scans submissions to ensure scan results are mapped to the intended products.

Product names are also used for saving scans and other naming so it is recommended to give a sensible name for the product to be able to find it later.
