  description: >-
    All requests must include an X-Risk-Token header whose value is the API token
    generated in the Cisco Vulnerability Management UI under Settings > API Keys.
    API keys can be copied one time immediately after generation. All calls must be
    over HTTPS; plain HTTP requests fail.

notes:
- The API base host matches the subscription subdomain; the documented example host is
  api.kennasecurity.com. Verify the exact host on the Settings > API Keys page.
- No OAuth2 / OpenID Connect flows are documented; authentication is a single static
  API-key token header.
