Generating a Report

PAIStrike can automatically generate a professional penetration testing report from your project findings. Reports are suitable for delivery to clients, management, or compliance auditors.

Report Structure

A PAIStrike report includes the following sections:

1. Cover Page

• Report title
• Organization and project name
• Prepared by / prepared for
• Date of report generation

2. Executive Summary

A non-technical overview intended for management audiences:

• High-level description of the engagement scope
• Overall risk assessment
• Summary of findings by severity (Critical, High, Medium, Low, Info)
• Key recommendations

3. Scope and Methodology

• List of assets tested
• Testing period
• Testing modes used (black box / white box)
• Tools and techniques employed by the AI
• Any agreed-upon exclusions or limitations

4. Findings

The core of the report — a detailed write-up of every vulnerability discovered:

For each finding:

• Title and severity
• Affected asset and endpoint/path
• Description — what the vulnerability is and how it works
• Steps to reproduce — how to manually confirm the issue
• Evidence — screenshots, request/response data
• Risk analysis — business impact if exploited
• Remediation — recommended fix with implementation guidance
• References — CVE, CWE, or external links

Findings are ordered by severity (Critical → High → Medium → Low → Info).

5. Appendices

• Raw scan data or logs (optional)
• Glossary of security terms
• About PAIStrike (platform description)

6. Disclaimers

• Legal disclaimer clarifying the scope of the test
• Statement that findings reflect a point-in-time assessment
• Responsible disclosure note

Generating a Report

1. Open your project.
2. Click the Reports tab.
3. Click Generate Report.
4. In the report configuration modal:
   • Select which assets to include (all or a subset)
   • Select the date range for findings
   • Choose the language for the report (see Exporting PDF)
   • Toggle optional sections (e.g., include/exclude appendices)
5. Click Generate.

PAIStrike compiles the report in the background. When it's ready, you'll see it in the Reports list with a Ready status.

Managing Reports

The Reports tab lists all generated reports for the project:

• Report name — auto-named with project name and generation date
• Status — Generating, Ready, or Failed
• Language — the language the report was generated in
• Created by — who triggered the generation
• Actions — Download PDF, Regenerate, Delete

Regenerating a Report

If new findings have been added since the last report, click Regenerate to create an updated version with the latest data.

Deleting a Report

Click the Delete icon next to a report to remove it. This only removes the generated document — the underlying findings are not affected.
