Instead of manually entering each piece of evidence or relying on an Excel file, the "Add from Text" feature allows pentesters to quickly parse and import data as structured evidence. This tool is particularly useful for efficiently adding affected IPs to a report as part of the findings.
When the Evidences view in a project is configured to display in Grid mode (in the project settings), a new "Add from text" button appears next to the existing "Import" button.
- Navigate to the Pentests section in the left-hand menu.
- Select the relevant Pentest from the list.
Activate the Grid
- Go to Actions > Settings > Findings and set "Display Evidences" to "Grid (Best for large amount of evidences, Import evidences)".
- Move to the "Findings" menu in the Pentest Dashboard.
- Click on the specific finding you wish to add evidence to.
Opening the "Add From Text" Dialog
- Click the "Add From Text" button.
- In the “Add Evidence From Text” dialog, choose how you want the evidence to be matched. From the dropdown, select whether to match with assets from the current finding or from the overall project.
When you choose All assets from Pentest, any matched asset that is not already linked to the finding will be added automatically.
- Select the Evidence field to parse (IP or Location) from the dropdown menu.
- Paste the relevant text into the Text to be parsed box. You can enter multiple entries separated by commas, semicolons, or line breaks. Then click Next to continue.
- Separated by comma:
- Separated by semicolon:
- Separated by line breaks:
Review and Confirm
- The system displays the matched items for your review. You can manually deselect any entries you don't want to include. After you make the selection, click "Next".
- Once you are ready, clicking "Add" adds the selected items as new evidence entries in the finding's evidence grid.
- The evidence grid will then be populated with the parsed data.
