Managing your scans - Port Swigger
Summary: This PortSwigger page is the "Managing your scans" section of the Burp Suite DAST user guide, covering how users create and manage scans in the product. It lists subsections on creating scans, scheduled scans, bulk actions, pausing and resuming, viewing scan details, monitoring progress, scanning best practices, managing false positives, site and scan data settings, and downloading logs and debug packs.
What's compelling: The guide separates best practices for scanning from best practices for managing false positives, which signals that triage load, not scan coverage, is where DAST programs tend to stall.
