Export Summary Report

Overview

The Summary Report in Akto provides a high-level snapshot of an API security scan. It is ideal for executives, compliance teams, and managers who need quick insights into the security posture without diving into raw technical data.

The report highlights the number of vulnerabilities, their severity distribution, categories affected, and scan configuration details.
