Connector

DefectDojo

API credential, entered client by client.

Self-hosted, open-source platform that aggregates vulnerability scan results (Nessus, OpenVAS, Trivy, etc.) into engagements and findings. Vigicap reads the number of engagements and tracked vulnerabilities (including active ones) to evaluate the ReCyF objective « Gestion des vulnérabilités ». Vulnerabilities aggregated into an engagement process is a signal, but does not guarantee that those vulnerabilities are then remediated within a given timeframe.

01

What to create in the tool

The access is created in DefectDojo, not in Vigicap. Vigicap never asks for an administrator's password: it expects an API credential that you create, that you can see, and that you can revoke without us.

Where to generate it

In DefectDojo, once signed in to the web interface: go to /api/key-v2 (or user menu > API v2 Key) to generate your personal API key.

Minimum role

The minimum role this connector needs is not documented to date. We would rather write that than guess it: an unverified claim about access rights ends up in front of a client's data protection officer, who is precisely the person who will check it. Refer to the vendor's documentation, which alone is authoritative on its role model.

02

What to enter in Vigicap

The exact fields of the connection form, in the order they appear. Values marked “secret” never travel back to the browser: they are encrypted at rest and deleted on disconnection.

The form starts with the instance address, entered separately from the fields below. The public catalogue does not yet publish whether this connector needs one, or what it looks like — so this list is exact about everything else, and silent about that first field.

03

Per-client routing

The connection is made client by client: one credential per client, entered on that client's record. Nothing is shared between two clients, and disconnecting one leaves the other untouched.

04

What it does, and what it does not do

ReCyF objectives it pre-fills

A reading feeds one objective of the ANSSI ReCyF framework. It PROPOSES it: the level only counts once a consultant has confirmed it.

Read-only

The reads are read-only: Vigicap writes nothing into the tool while reading it.

What is read, what is kept, for how long and with which rights: the same register, connector by connector, in the data inventory.

Verification

This connector has been run end to end against a real instance of the tool, not merely tested against a mock.
