Ability to skip scan #13

Closed lkiesow closed 1 year ago

lkiesow commented 1 year ago

Sometimes, it is important to act fast and you don't have time to wait for an initial scan. Imagine, someone accidentally blocked an critical service. You now have to wait for ~30 min to fix the problem since DETERRERS will initialize a new scan. It should be possible to ship that. Even if it's just a pro-feature in the API, so you can do --skip-scan from the command line.

Please! errors happen and development cycles might need some speed and I need to be able to manually override scans, if I know what I am doing.

tibroc commented 1 year ago

Actually skipping the scan should be the default, because it is rarely useful to scan a new empty machine. However, periodic scanning with alerts (see #20 ) is where the value is.
