New in Dradis Pro v4.2

Dradis Framework is a collaboration and reporting tool for information security teams to manage and deliver the results of security assessments, in less time and with less frustration than manual methods.

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.
