Akto (Pro)

The Akto connector imports API security testing findings from Akto. DefectDojo creates a Record for each Akto API collection.

Prerequisites#

An Akto API key, created under Settings > Integrations > Akto APIs in the Akto dashboard. It is sent as the X-API-KEY header and is never logged.

Connector Mappings#

1. Enter https://app.akto.io in the Location field for Akto’s SaaS platform. If you run Akto self-hosted, enter your own dashboard URL instead.
2. Enter your Akto API key in the API Key field.
3. Optionally, set a Minimum Severity to limit which findings are imported.

Each API collection becomes a Record. Only open issues are imported, so issues you resolve in Akto are reflected in DefectDojo on the next Sync. Both Akto SaaS and self-hosted deployments use this connector — the only difference is the Location you supply.
