How long does Audit Take

Malcolm | Last updated: Jun 23, 2021 04:42AM UTC

Hi, I just signed up for the trial license,and tried running the default scans for crawling and audit. But somehow there estimated time to complete the audit, indicates more then 10 days. Is there something wrong? or its just typically how long it takes to do a scan.

Thanks for your message. Scan times will vary and will be affected by factors such as the complexity of the site and the resources available on the machine running the scan. The estimated time to complete the audit may also change as the scan progresses. If the estimated time is showing as 10 days then it would be good to find out more about your setup and the site being scanned as most scans should not take this long. When the estimated time shows this, can you still see the number of requests being sent by the scan task increasing? Are you using a temporary or disk-based project? Can you email support@portswigger.net and send us the output from Help -> Diagnostics and send us some screenshots of what you are seeing so we can look into this with you, please?

Thank you for the reply, I send over the screenshots and the Diagnostics file over.
