About Configuring a Proxy for Rulepack Updates
By default, Fortify Software Security Center downloads the current versions of Fortify Secure Coding Rulepacks you subscribe to from the Fortify Customer Portal at https://update.fortify.com.
If your organization uses a proxy to access external resources, Fortify recommends that you configure a proxy for secure coding Rulepacks updates (as well as for bug tracking and, if you use it, Audit Assistant
An optional tool used to connect Fortify Software Security Center to Fortify Scan Analytics. Audit Assistant (through Fortify Scan Analytics) helps determine whether the issues returned from Fortify Static Code Analyzer scan results represent true vulnerabilities, or are false positives.). For instructions on how to configure a single proxy for use with all HTTP(s) protocol-based Fortify Software Security Center integrations, see Configuring a Proxy for Fortify Software Security Center Integrations.
After you configure a single proxy for use with all HTTP(s) protocol-based integrations, you can enable of that proxy for Rulepack update. For instructions, see Configuring Core Settings.
