# Configuring Application Vulnerability Response

Before you run Application Vulnerability Response in your ServiceNow AI Platform instance, you must configure it.

Do the following setup steps prior to configuration so that you can ensure that your configuration is complete.
-   **[Configure penetration testing](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ServiceNow/ServiceNowDocs/brazil/markdown/security-management/application-vulnerability-response/pen-test-config-v16-1.md)**  
You can configure the sprint duration and estimated effort for penetration testing assessment types. This provides the scheduling functionality for application owners, helping them determine a tentative time frame for their penetration test assessment requests.
