Managing Custom Detection Rules
During a Code Insight project scan, the Automated Analysis component of the Scan Server uses a set of internal detection rules, stored in the Code Insight data library, to automatically generate inventory items. However, in some cases, your manual analysis might find codebase files that are associated with a third-party component but not associated with inventory. Code Insight enables you to create custom detection rules that convert such findings into future automated inventory items. These rules are saved to the Code Insight data library for global use by Automated Analysis during scans on future projects (or rescans on current projects).
The following sections provide more information about managing custom detection rules:
