wvs schedule

wvs schedule

Use this command to schedule a web vulnerability scan.

Vulnerability scanning can detect known vulnerabilities on your web servers and web applications, helping you to design protection profiles. Vulnerability scans start from an initial directory, then scan for vulnerabilities in web pages located in the same directory or subdirectory as the initial URL.

To use this command, your administrator account’s access control profile must have either w or rw permission to the wvsgrp area. For details, see Permissions.
