Learn how our most recent updates—which include in-app quality assurance workflows, easier deployment with Docker, and AI-driven enhancements—allow for the creation of reports faster and with greater quality.
When we’re not presenting, we’ll be diving into the briefings, trainings, and executive summits across AI, exploit development, cloud, and physical infrastructure. Here’s what we’re most excited about.
Quality Assurance
Review/approve Issues and Content Blocks before including them in reports.
The goal here was to give you a way to differentiate between “I’ve reviewed this issue” and “I haven’t reviewed this issue yet”.
You can use the new QA view to look at your “Ready for review” Issues and Content Blocks and review them before including them in reports.
Then, on the Export page, the default is to export just the Published records. But, you can also export All if that makes more sense for your team’s workflow.
Tester Administration
We’ve also added better in-app tester administration. If a user gets locked out of their account with too many incorrect login attempts, Admin users will now be able to unlock their account with 1 click.
Release Notes
Quality Assurance: Review/approve Issues and Content Blocks before including them in reports
Tester Administration: Add unlock button to UI for locked Testers
Integration enhancements:
JIRA: Add support for Jira Data Center v8.4+

When we’re not presenting, we’ll be diving into the briefings, trainings, and executive summits across AI, exploit development, cloud, and physical infrastructure. Here’s what we’re most excited about.
Inline Code Support
We already supported code blocks, but now, you can use @ symbols to create in-line code inside of your Dradis project:
When you export this to a Word report that has a custom InlineCode character style, you’ll get that code styled automatically:
Custom Tag Management
Previously, you could create custom tags by editing the XML of the project template directly. That’s still an option if you happen to enjoy dealing with XML. Otherwise, you can now use the UI for that whole process. There’s even a color picker so that you can get just the right shade for your custom tags.
From the project level, you can also manage your tags and create, edit, or delete them as needed:
Opt-in Usage Analytics
Prior to v4.7, we had no way to receive usage data from your instance other than a ping to our licensing server when you first activate the instance. In v4.7, we have rolled out optional usage analytics that you can share with us. Yes, optional!
For full transparency, you can see exactly what you would be sending to us in the event log. It’s all anonymized data like “someone exported a Word report” or “someone logged in as a contributor” that is designed to help us understand how teams are using Dradis and should not reveal anything sensitive, not even your email address.
Of course, you can always opt out of sharing this data with us if you prefer. We’re excited to have a bit more information about how you’re currently using Dradis so that we can make the product even better for everyone in the future.
Release Notes

Integration and Tool Manager
Now you can install and upgrade integrations (such as DuoWeb and Jira) and tools (such as the Gateway and the Remediation Tracker) directly in the Dradis application – no need to use ssh or the command line! Simply browse to the Integration and Tool Manager in Dradis v4.6, Get the tool, and then Enable it. Then you should be good to go!
Instance Dashboard
Want a better overview of what is going on in your Dradis instance after login? The new Instance Dashboard gives you an at-a-glance overview of Projects, Tickets, and Tasks assigned to you; a list of the newest unread notifications; and and overview of what’s new in the latest version of Dradis.
As a new feature, please do let us know if there are other things you would like to see or change on the instance dashboard once you start using it.
Permanently delete items in Trash
As of v4.2 of Dradis, you could soft-delete projects and teams so they end up in an Instance Trash. However, to permanently delete items in trash, you needed to use the command line. Not anymore! Now you can permanently delete items in Trash straight from the UI.
New Kits
We have long had a few templates and kits available for download at the Dradis Users Portal. We have overhauled some of these kits and made them available directly from the Dradis UI. Simply go to Templates –> Kit Upload, and either upload a kit file as you normally would, or click the Upload button under your preferred preinstalled testing kit.

When we’re not presenting, we’ll be diving into the briefings, trainings, and executive summits across AI, exploit development, cloud, and physical infrastructure. Here’s what we’re most excited about.
CSV Importer
Dradis can now import CSV files into projects! Some vulnerability scanners produce output in CSV format rather than e.g. XML or JSON. You can now import these (and other) CSV files into Dradis, and configure which column to assign to which field in your Dradis projects on a per-file basis. Simply go to “Upload”, select the CSV importer, upload a file, and you will be redirected to an interface to assign data to fields. As with other plugins, you can create Issue, Evidence, or Node data and fields.
This is v1 of the CSV importer, so we look forward to your feedback on what works for you and what you would like to see in the future from this feature!
Note that for the sake of internal naming consistency, we have renamed the CSV exporter plugin with this change, so if you have the CSV exporter installed, you will need to reinstall the plugin as dradis-csv_export.
JIRA bulk send
Do you use our JIRA integration? If so, you can now bulk-send issues to JIRA. Simply select multiple issues from your project in the “All Issues” view, and click “Send to JIRA”:
That will send all your selected issues to the Dradis-JIRA interface. Pick the destination project, issue type, and other required fields for each item, and you’re done!
Bug fixes and quality-of-life improvements
Another focus of the v4.5 release is working through some bug reports and lower-level requests we have accumulated over time.
Bug fixes include multiple items relating to attachment validation and export, Node labels linking to external resources (so e.g. clicking on a Node label of “www.google.com” will no longer redirect you to Google instead of the Node in Dradis), and the Rules Engine matching against IssueLibrary entries without trailing empty lines.
Quality-of-life improvements include adding Revision History for Content Blocks and improved error messages in the Output Console on Word report export. Check our release notes for more detail!

When we’re not presenting, we’ll be diving into the briefings, trainings, and executive summits across AI, exploit development, cloud, and physical infrastructure. Here’s what we’re most excited about.
Plugin Manager Validation
The Plugin Manager has new validation! Previously, you’d need a file like issue.txt to use when configuring the Plugin Manager. Now, you can simply associate the Plugin Manager with one of the report templates on your Dradis instance. You’ll see a validation check on the right that will tell you about any missing fields as you configure.
Rules Engine Population
Remember that after a tool file is uploaded, the data runs through the Plugin Manager, then hits the Rules Engine. So, we’ve also updated the Rules Engine so that when you build out new Rules, the Match Field trigger is populated with a dropdown of fields that matches what you configured in the Plugin Manager. No more double-checking field names, capitalization, or anything else like that.
Duplicate a Project
Want to start over with a copy of one of your existing projects? Previously, we had the project import/export feature that would work for this but the new Duplicate button streamlines the process significantly. For retests or just starting over with a copy of a project, just hit the Duplicate button and a new project will be automatically created that is identical to the old one.
Bulk Update Issues and Evidence fields
Have you ever run into a situation where you wished that you could edit multiple Issues or instances of Evidence at once? You can now! Just select multiple Issues or instances of Evidence:

Auto-update Charts in Word
Previously, to include charts in Word templates, VBA macros were necessary to be able to update the charts in exported reports. This was a problem for the Mac users among us, as the relevant VBA is not supported in Office for Mac. We have now tweaked the reporting engine so that the source Excel sheets for charts in Word can be filled in with filters so they will auto-update during the export process from Dradis. The supported filters support the majority of use cases we have seen, such as issue counts by CVSS score, severity, type, category, host, etc.
Gateway comments
Do you use the Dradis Gateway? We have now improved this collaboration feature! Comments are already supported within Dradis projects, but now comments have reached the Gateway as well. If you are an Admin or Author on a project, you can choose to make a comment public (available on Gateway) or not (only visible to your team members within the project). Gateway contributors are able to view your public comments and submit their own comments on issues and other content inside the Gateway.
Qualys Asset Scans
Dradis now supports Qualys Asset Scans! This expands our Qualys coverage to include:
Qualys Vulnerability Scans (Vuln)
Qualys Web Application Scans (WAS)
Qualys Asset Scans (ASSET)

Project Soft-Delete and Instance Level Trash
Previously, once you deleted a project or a team, it was gone forever! We have now added soft-delete and an instance-level trash. So, if you delete a project or team, you can find it in your instance’s Trash, and you can recover it from there.
Choose Which Fields to Display by Default in Projects
In recent versions of Dradis, new projects will display all fields for Issues and Evidence in their respective tables by default. This can lead to a cluttered view. You can update which columns to display, but this is stored on a per-project basis. Now, you can select which Issue and Evidence fields to display by default in the Report Template Properties for your project’s associated report template in Templates –> Reports. Simply switch the toggle to “Show” to whichever fields you want to display by default, and that will apply instance-wide from then on. Of course, if you have project-specific preferences, or if you have multiple people working on the same project but with different preferences of which columns to display, each user can still manually set their preferences on a per-project basis as before.
Improved Evidence Creation from the Issue Level
Dradis lets you add Evidence directly from Issues by going to the Evidence tab of an Issue and hitting the “+ New Evidence” button. Previously that only allowed you to add a blank piece of Evidence or adding a Note template with no customised content. Now, you can customise the content right in the “Add New Evidence” form and choose where to put it, including in new nested Nodes.

Move Evidence
Previously, you could only move Notes from one Node to another. Now, we’ve extended this behavior to Evidence as well. Have an instance of Evidence that actually belongs to a different Node? Just open the instance of Evidence, click Move (it’s in the 3 dots icon in the top right of the screen) and move it to the correct Node. That’s it!
Move your Evidence from one Node to another
Download Report Templates
Do you need to make a report template update or send us a copy of the report template? What happens if you didn’t create the report template to begin with or the template is old enough that you don’t even know where your local copy could be hiding? Previously, SCP was your only option to download a copy of a report template on your instance. Now, just head to Templates > Reports in the header and click the download button next to any report template to get your own local copy.
Download report templates via the Dradis UI instead of SCP
IssueLibrary Templates + Comments
IssueLibrary entries are great! But, creating them from scratch can be a pain without a format to work with. Now, when you create your IssueLibrary entries, you can select a Note template. No more blank page paralysis or trying to remember whether that field is called “Recommendation” or “Recommendations”, you can select your Issue template and just populate it with the data that you need.
Apply a Note template the next time you create a new IssueLibrary entry
Then, once your IssueLibrary entries are created, you can use comments to have a conversation with the rest of your team. Ask questions, offer suggestions, or just leave celebratory emoji comments! 🎉
Leave comments on IssueLibrary entries to have a conversation with the rest of your team

Gateway Themes
One of the biggest changes in Dradis Pro v.4.0 is the move from a single HTML Gateway template to Liquid themes. Create a dynamic, info packed, theme to deliver assessment results dynamically in Gateway using Liquid. Multiple Gateway themes means each project can use a different theme that’s appropriate to the engagement. Two new Gateway themes are included with Dradis Pro v4.0 to get you started.
Liquid has a well supported and documented history for creating robust templates. This will make it easier for teams to create and support their own well organized, customized templates.
Are you currently using a customized Gateway HTML template? Reach out to our team with your existing template so we can help convert it to Liquid before you upgrade any production instances.
Downloadable Assets
In addition to reviewing the results of an assessment dynamically in Gateway, contributing users can securely download assets that have been added to their project. Deliver final reports, scope documents, and other assets directly from Gateway keeping everyone out of their inboxes and project details centralized.
Simple Team Setup
Getting started using Dradis Pro is simple. Once deployed to your environment, the super-admin for the instance is created during the first run and can quickly set up the rest of the team through this new guided walk-through.
Maximum Login Attempts
Configure the number of maximum login attempts to help prevent brute-force attacks on your Dradis instance. The default is set to 3 attempts before the account is locked. Admins can increase or decrease the number of attempts to align with their team’s policies.
Captain Kirk and Sulu are both locked out for entering invalid credentials

Instance Notifications
All notifications now display at the instance level so you don’t have to open each project to see notifications. These Dradis instance-wide notifications include notifications from updates in Remediation Tracker tickets too.
Accessibility Improvements
Dradis font and element contrast are adjusted to meet Level AA WCAG 2.0 standards. Also, screen reader and alt-text are added and a few broken Aria references and missing labels are fixed. All of these improvements make Dradis easier for everyone to use.
Emojis 🥳
We 💖 love emojis on the Security Roots team and use them all the time working together. 😤 It was frustrating that we couldn’t use them in Dradis, so we added them 🎉! Now you can use emojis in any input field of Dradis to express yourself or within projects details for additional context. 😎
ServiceNow Integration
Create a ServiceNow Vulnerable Item from a Dradis Issue in a few clicks. The new ServiceNow integration allows the owner of the system to receive critical finding details so they can handle remediation outside of Dradis.
