Task Chains : Common Automation Tasks : Deleting Project Data Before a Task Chain Run

Deleting Project Data Before a Task Chain Run

When the system runs a task, it stores any information that it collects in the project, such as hosts, services, passwords, hashes, and screenshots. If the system does not clear the stored data before it runs the task chain, the system may try to exploit offline hosts. To ensure that the system only exploits active hosts, delete the project data before the system runs the task chain.
To delete the project data before the system runs the task schedule, you must enable the Delete project data option for the task schedule. To locate the Delete project data option, select Tasks > Schedules and open a task schedule. The option is located under Name and Recurrence. Make sure to save the task schedule after you modify it.
