Advanced settings can either apply to all connections for this adapter, or to a specific connection. Refer to ​Advanced Configuration for Adapters.

  1. Fetch data from SSL scanner (default: true) - Enable this option to fetch data using an SSL scan.

    • When enabled, this will enrich device data with SSL Labs data, that includes information about the server host, its endpoints and indications on exposure to known SSL vulnerabilities, such as Heartbleed and POODLE.
      • To enrich device with data using an SSL scan:
        • Host name is required in the Web Server Domain field (see Required Parameters). If the device data does not include a host name, one of the following can be used:
          • Device IP address, that must be a public IP address.
          • Domain, if fetched as part of the SSL Certificate data.
        • An SSL port (default: 443) must be opened for Axonius to use the SSL Labs API.
  2. Save Raw Data - Select this option to save raw data.
