Resolving issues with discovery results is an iterative process:
- Configuring and running Scan Jobs
- Review results of Scan Jobs in IT Explorer and Scan Logs and Results
- Refine Scan Jobs until the environment has been completely discovered
- Reviewing the findings and extending the Scan job scopes / Blacklisting low-interest processes / Adding Fingerprints and Templates to model the environment more accurately

Scan Logs and Results
Scan Logs
A Scan Log allows displaying the information about the scan per IP Address.
Columns can be sorted and allow to quickly identify things like IP addresses taking a lot of time to be scanned, or IPs where credentials didn't provide access to target systems.
