pensar pentests

Overview

The pensar pentests command lets you manage pentests (scans) in your workspace through the Pensar Console API. You can list existing pentests, view details, or dispatch new ones — all from the command line.

All commands operate on the selected workspace, which is chosen when you connect with pensar login. There is no longer a project argument.

Usage

$
pensar pentests                       # List pentests in the workspace (alias: pensar pentests list)
$
pensar pentests get <pentestId>        # Get pentest details
$
pensar pentests dispatch [options]     # Dispatch a new pentest

Prerequisites

You must be connected to Pensar Console via pensar login before using this command.
