Frequently Asked Questions
50+ vendor-focused questions across login, access, findings, risk, billing, notifications and integrations.
Login & Access
How do I log in?
Go to app.iefyx.com, enter your email and password, and complete the OTP if 2FA is enabled.
I forgot my password — what now?
Use "Forgot Password"; a single-use reset link is emailed and expires after a short window.
Why is my account locked?
Five failed login attempts lock the account for 15 minutes. Wait, or reset your password.
My session expired suddenly.
Sessions last 8 hours; you'll be asked to sign in again after that or after logging out.
I didn't get my login OTP.
Check spam, confirm your profile email, and use "Resend OTP".
How do I enable two-factor authentication?
Settings → Profile → enable Two-Factor Authentication.
Can I disable 2FA?
Yes, in Settings → Profile, but it is strongly discouraged.
Why can't I see the OEM portal?
Vendor accounts are restricted to the vendor portal by portal-isolation controls.
Why do I only have read access?
Either your role is Read Only, or your Free Trial expired and the account is read-only until a paid plan is activated.
Can multiple people use one login?
No — create individual users so audit logs stay accurate.
Customers & Applications
What's the difference between a customer and an application?
A customer is the client organization; an application is an asset of that customer you assess.
Why can't I add another customer/application?
You've hit your plan limit; upgrade or remove unused records.
How do I record compliance scope?
On the application, set the compliance scope (PCI-DSS, ISO 27001, SOC 2, HIPAA, GDPR or custom).
Can I delete a customer/application by mistake?
Deletes are soft (recoverable). Admins can restore; permanent delete is Admin-only.
Who can create applications?
Admin and Penetration Tester roles.
Can I upload a mobile app binary?
Yes — the application record stores the uploaded .apk/.ipa path for mobile assessments.
Vulnerability Management
How is severity decided?
If you supply a CVSS score, severity is auto-derived (and re-derived on edit).
What severities exist?
Critical, High, Medium, Low and Information.
What statuses can a finding have?
Open, In Progress, Fixed, Closed and Hold.
How do I attach evidence?
Use the Attachments section, or embed screenshots in the PoC/Impact editor.
Why was my file upload rejected?
Uploads are validated by magic bytes and size — use an allowed file type within limits.
How do I bulk-import findings?
Download the import template, fill it, and use Bulk Import; check Upload History and the error report for rejects.
Can I import directly from a scanner?
Yes — connect the scanner, trigger a scan, and import findings.
What is the dedup fingerprint?
A signature used to detect repeat findings so you don't create duplicates.
How do I retest a finding?
Use the retest workflow (Requested → In Progress → Passed/Failed) on the finding.
Can I add CWE/OWASP/MITRE data?
Yes — these classification fields are on every finding.
Risk Management
How are SLA deadlines set?
From your Risk Configuration's per-severity SLA days (defaults: 1/7/30/90).
What does SLA "Breached" mean?
The remediation deadline passed without closure; breaches appear in the SLA-breach list.
How is the risk score computed?
Auto-computed (0–100) from your Risk Configuration (method, scales, control weight).
How do I accept a risk?
Move the finding to Hold/Closed with a justification, following your approval governance.
Can I change SLA windows?
Yes — Admins edit them in Risk Configuration.
Reporting & Certificates
Which formats can I generate?
PDF and HTML reports.
Why did report generation fail?
Ensure the application has findings and required fields, and that you're within your monthly report limit.
Can I use my own report template?
Yes — upload a custom template and set it as default (custom-templates entitlement).
What report statuses are there?
Draft, Review, Initial, Retest and Final.
How do I issue a certificate?
Certificates → create for the application and generate from a template.
Who can generate reports?
Admin and Penetration Tester roles.
Subscription & Billing
What plans are available?
Free Trial, Starter (₹4,999), Professional (₹14,999) and Enterprise (₹49,999) per month.
What happens when my trial ends?
The account becomes read-only until you activate a paid plan; data is preserved.
How do I pay?
Via Razorpay checkout from the Billing screen.
My payment isn't reflected yet.
Confirmation may arrive via webhook shortly; if not, re-verify from Billing or contact support.
Do you issue GST invoices?
Yes — India-compliant invoices with CGST/SGST or IGST, downloadable as PDF.
Where do I see usage vs limits?
Settings → Billing shows usage against each plan limit.
Can I upgrade mid-cycle?
Yes — Admins can move to a higher plan from Billing.
Why was a create action blocked?
You reached a plan limit (users, customers, applications, etc.).
Notifications
Where are my alerts?
The in-app Notifications center, with an unread badge.
Can I get email alerts?
Yes — email is used for OTP, password reset and account/payment events.
How do I stop notifications?
Toggle notifications off in your profile.
Can I be alerted on SLA breach?
Yes — enable breach alerts/escalation in Risk Configuration.
Integrations & API
Which scanners are supported?
ZAP, OpenVAS, Nessus, Burp, Nuclei, Nikto, Nmap, plus a custom connector.
Do you integrate with Jira?
Yes — push and sync findings to Jira.
Is ServiceNow supported?
Not as a native adapter today; use the custom connector or API.
Do you support Slack/Teams?
Yes, as notification integrations.
Are AWS/Azure/GCP integrations available?
Not in this build.
How do I use the REST API?
Authenticate with a Bearer JWT or an Admin-created API key (apiAccess entitlement).
Why does Test Connection fail?
Check the base URL, credentials and network reachability; the platform also blocks unsafe internal URLs.
Why can't I create an integration?
Integrations require the integrations entitlement (Professional/Enterprise) and Admin role.
