Projects in HackGATE let you organize your security testing engagements. Each project represents a single testing initiative — such as a quarterly web app pentest or an ongoing bug bounty program — and contains the metadata and scope items that define what’s in and out of bounds.

​
Project structure

A project contains the following information:
  • Basic info: name, description, type, and notes
  • Timeline: launch date, end date, and report deadline
  • Ownership: owner name and vendor or partner name
  • Retest settings: whether retesting is needed, and retest launch and end dates
  • Access type and location metadata

​
Scope items

Each project can have one or more scope items (called Project Items in the API). A scope item represents a specific target — such as a web application, API endpoint, IP range, or mobile app — and records its type, location, and access type.
