Mend (Pro)

The Mend connector (formerly WhiteSource) uses the Mend API to import security findings from your Mend organization. DefectDojo creates a Record for each Mend project.

Prerequisites

You will need a Mend (service) user with a User Key (a personal access token) and your Mend Organization UUID. We recommend a dedicated service account so automated activity is easy to distinguish from manual team actions. Find the Organization UUID in the Mend App under Administration > Organization UUID.

Connector Mappings

  1. Enter your Mend API URL in the Location field. This URL is region-specific — use the API base URL for the region your Mend organization is hosted in.
  2. Enter the login email of the Mend user in the Email field.
  3. Enter your Mend Organization UUID in the Organization UUID field.
  4. Enter the Mend User Key in the User Key field.
  5. Optionally, set a Minimum Severity to limit which findings are imported.
