Viewing scan results - Port Swigger
Summary: PortSwigger's documentation describes how to read Burp Scanner results across tabs: the Dashboard shows scan graphs, the Issues tab lists found security issues grouped by type with instance counts, remediation advice and the request log, and the Discovered URLs tab shows which URLs were audited via a Status column. Issues investigated as part of an AI-enhanced scan carry an AI sparkle icon, and a scan is marked Failed if it is terminated early, for example when Burp Scanner could not connect to any of the specified URLs.
Key Takeaway: The Discovered URLs tab distinguishes URLs that were crawled but not audited, so a clean-looking Issues list can sit on top of coverage the scan never actually tested.
