+To be more specific, start the directory name with <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">/</code> (e.g., <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">/app/some_dir/</code>). The directory will be matched relative to the root of the project being scanned.</p>

 <p>The inverse but even more dangerous option is to specific which files to scan:</p>

 <p>Again, since Brakeman looks at the whole program, it is very likely not going to behave as expected when scanning a subset of files. Also, if certain files are excluded Brakeman may not function at all.</p>
