Service Coordinator - Technology Security at a government with 10,001+ employees
The solution helps users to manage their entire IP range, but it's unreliable and very expensive to maintain
Only the administrator was using the product. He used it to read reports as part of our compliance programs. It wasn't heavily used by a lot of users. The tool comes in at a large scale, and we tried to scale it down. The scaling did not apply to us. It was neither difficult nor easy. I rate the scalability a five out of ten. We had some challenges while scaling it down. It could do 10,000 devices, and we wanted to use it for ten devices. The process was difficult and expensive. We did not need the product anymore.

Head of Security Architecture at a healthcare company with 5,001-10,000 employees
Onboarding developers successfully while improving code security through IDE integration
Regarding room for improvement, we have some problems when onboarding new projects because the build process has to be done in a certain way, as Veracode analyzes the binaries and not the code by itself alone. If the process is not configured correctly, it doesn't work. That's one of the things that we are discussing with Veracode. Something positive that we've been able to do is submit formal feature requests to them, and they are working on them; they've already solved some of them. This encourages us to propose new ideas and improvements. Another improvement that we asked for this use case is to be able to configure how Veracode Fix proposes and fixes because sometimes it makes proposals using libraries that go against our architecture design made by the enterprise architecture team. For example, we want them to propose using another library, and that's something we already asked Veracode, and they are working on it. We want to specify when you see this kind of vulnerability, you can only propose these two options.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Tripwire is one of the most mature in terms of companies, suites, support, everything, much more than any other product."
"It has enhanced the security program by ensuring that all external-facing systems are scanned on a routine basis."
"This product detects vulnerabilities which exist in the environment, and provides enough information that allows for remediation, thereby securing the environment."
"Tripwire IP360 helps me to discover most of the vulnerabilities, and I like the way that it prioritizes these vulnerabilities, as it allows me to focus on the most important ones first and then follow up with the rest."
"We could manage our entire IP range with the solution."
"The company probably chose this solution because they thought that they would be getting the best bang for their buck."
"It's become the pinnacle point for anything that enters the network or anything that's passing through to production to first be affected by IP360, hardened, and up to standard. For our integrity management, one was deployed in the bank about two years ago and that's still going to expand the usage and the product itself. That will go hand in hand with training and expanding the product as for where it's deployed."
"Tripwire IP360 is a very stable solution."
"To me, the principal feature is the CLI (command-line interface) because I put together a lot of implementations using it. Another important aspect is the low false-positive rate because the solution is very configurable. It is as low as 1 percent and that is a huge difference compared to competitors."
"The best feature is definitely the detailed reports. It provides code-related queries in the order of high, medium, and low depending on what we need to do. Veracode is user-friendly as well."
"Right now, I couldn't ask another thing from them."
"It's comprehensive from a feature standpoint."
"The platform itself has a lot of AppSec best practices information, especially in the mitigation recommendation process."
"Considering that in my project, we are mostly using Software Composition Analysis as a part of Static Code Analysis, for me, the main part is reporting and highlighting necessary vulnerabilities. Veracode platform has a rather good database of different vulnerabilities in different libraries and different sources. So, finding vulnerabilities in third-party libraries is the main feature of Software Composition Analysis that we use. It is the most important feature for us."
"I don't have to have a team of developers behind me that keep up with all the latest threats because the subscription service they provide for me does that."
"The volume of unmitigated flaws in our applications has been substantially reduced."
 

Cons

"We need to dedicate time and resources to keep it running."
"For IP360, unfortunately, scans for certain vulnerabilities often cause issues, as they are mainly false positive."
"If you are looking for better reporting capabilities and vulnerability tracking over time for remediation purposes, then this is not the best solution."
"The reporting functions can use improvement. There is room for growth because reporting functions differ a lot depending on what you're going to output. It depends on whether it's for technical or senior management and how it's interpreted. There could be growth within the reporting functionality side."
"We would like to have better reporting capabilities and for them to be more granular."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support."
"The reporting functions can use improvement."
"I am not very impressed by the technical support."
"Improve Mobile Application Dynamic Scanning DAST - .ipa and .apk. Right now I have to jailbreak an iPhone and root an Android to intercept and fuzz requests with a Burp Suite Proxy."
"I would also like to see some improvement in the speed. That is really the only complaint, but in all reality we have a massive Java application that needs to be scanned. Our developers are saying, "It takes 72 hours to scan it." That is probably the nature of the beast, and I'm actually pretty accepting of that time frame, but since it's a complaint that I get, faster is always better. I don't necessarily think that the speed is bad as it is, just that faster would be better."
"Sometimes the scans are not done quickly, but the solutions that it provides are really good. The quality is high, but the analysis is not done extremely quickly."
"I think if they could improve the operations around accepted vulnerabilities, we would see improvements in our productivity."
"I've seen slightly better static analysis tools from other companies when it comes to speed and ease of use."
"It is pricey. There is a lot of value in the product, but it is a costly tool."
"It can have more APIs and capabilities to handle other things well. We were doing a trial for it. There were two things that I looked at: one was uploading some Java-related content and the other was uploading database SQL files and having the review done on the quarterback. The Java portion of it worked fine, and it was pretty seamless, but the database portion was not. We uploaded some files to use for vulnerabilities, and the tell-all portion of it was pretty easy. We uploaded a war file and Java files, and we got the reports back on these. They were pretty clear to understand. We did the same thing for the database portion for the most part. However, the content wasn't getting uploaded in a predictable fashion, and it was slow and hard to get done. We had to do it over and over. After it indicated that the content was uploaded, there were no results. There were zero search findings. It was possibly a user error, something that we didn't do correctly, but they had acknowledged that it was something they were currently enhancing. This is something that could be made easier if they haven't already done that. I don't know how many releases they've had in that timeframe. I haven't looked at it since then. It was a trial period."
"Veracode has plenty of data. The problem is the information on the dashboards of Veracode, as the user interface is not great. It's not immediately usable. Most of the time, the best way to use it is to just create issues and put them in JIRA... But if I were a startup, and only had products with a good user interface, I wouldn't use Veracode because the UI is very dated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I believe the price compares well within the market."
"The product was expensive for us."
"Veracode is fairly priced."
"Veracode's pricing is on the higher end, but it is acceptable."
"Veracode is a very expensive product."
"To my knowledge, licensing for Veracode Static Analysis is paid yearly by my company."
"For the value we get out of it, coupled with the live defect review sessions, we find it an effective value for the money. We are a larger organization."
"The pricing is pretty high."
"The pricing is a bit high."
"I recommend going for a one-year licensing with CA, because currently they are the leaders in this field with more features and a much better turn around time with a cheaper position, but there are a lot of new companies coming up in the market and they are building up their platforms."
