Adding Assets and Sites to Certificate View

Start monitoring assets on your hosts by adding external (public) and internal sites to Certificate View.

You can add only external sites if you have a Certificate View Free subscription. To add and monitor internal sites, upgrade to Certificate View Full subscription.

Add External Sites

Go to Assets > External Sites and click Add Sites.

Provide either FQDNs or IP addresses of public sites you want to scan for certificates. The scan is initiated for a list of standard ports to collect certificate information on the sites provided by you.

Select the Add to Weekly Scan option to include or exclude the site from the weekly scheduled scan.

Click Save to scan the sites at a later time, or click Save and Start Scan to scan the site immediately.

Once the site is added, it is listed in the External Sites tab. Here you can view details about the sites like when it was last scanned, the status of the scan (Finished, Canceled, Waiting, Queued, Running, or Error). The external sites on the External Sites tab display based on the last scan date. You can also sort the information as per the last scan date.

Navigate to the Quick Actions menu for any site to perform actions on your scan, such as Launch Scan, Delete, Cancel Scan

Add Internal Sites

You can monitor FQDNs and IP addresses of internal sites if you have the Certificate View Full subscription. You can also view the certificate information gathered from your target IPs during the VM scans in Certificate View.

To add Assets from VM/VMDR.

Add the IPs you want to monitor for certificates and TLS configurations to CertView in your VM/VMDR app.

Go to VM/VMDR > Assets > Host Assets. From the New menu, select Add IP in CertView. Review the number of hosts you can add, enter the new IPs/ranges, and click Add. You can see the IPs currently added to CertView by selecting Filters > CertView Hosts.

Note:  CertView only shows information for IPs added to CertView, regardless of whether the data was collected via VM scans or CertView scans.

Include SSL Certificates Search List in Options Profile

Confirm that the SSL Certificates Search List is included in the Option Profile you use for your VM scans.

The QIDs listed in the SSL Certificates Search List is included along with the Vulnerability Detection QIDs for your VM scans.
