Add "Extension provided checks" to "Active / Passive Scanning Areas"

Nicolas | Last updated: Jul 18, 2017 08:56PM UTC

Currently, active and passive checks initiated by extensions are run for every scan (i.e. even if no "Scanning Areas" are selected). Having new Scanning Areas (one for passive, one for active) dedicated to extension-provided checks would be nice. I consider that disabling every checks but one (like "External interactions" for Infiltrator-based testing) and having extensions emitting traffic nonetheless is counter-intutive and probably unwanted... Thansk in advance for your feedback!
