# Acunetix Online & On-Premises

## Overview

Nucleus enables you to sync your web application scan data directly from the Acunetix Online and Acunetix On-Premises consoles into Nucleus using an automated connector. The connector uses APIs provided by Acunetix to seamlessly sync data into Nucleus projects for use in analysis, triage, automation and reporting.

          Connector Support and Naming

          

The **Acunetix** connector supports ingesting web application scans from the Acunetix Online (SaaS) and the Acunetix On-Premises Scanner appliance.

Please note that the Acunetix connector does not support the SaaS products Invicti Enterprise or Acunetix 360, which are instead supported by the [**Netsparker**](https://help.nucleussec.com/docs/invicti) connector.
