Streamlined our security efforts by allowing us to integrate with tools like Jira
From my experience, Invicti is an exceptionally stable solution for web application security. Here's what stands out: * Consistent Performance: Over the three years we’ve used it, the solution has demonstrated reliable and consistent performance, even during large-scale scanning operations. * Minimal Downtime: I have not encountered significant downtime or disruptions while using Invicti, which is critical for security tools that organizations rely on continuously. * Robust Architecture: Its ability to handle complex scanning tasks without crashes or lag reflects its well-engineered platform. * Regular Updates: Invicti frequently releases updates and patches, which enhance functionality and address any stability concerns proactively. Rating : I would confidently rate Invicti’s stability at 9.5 out of 10. It ensures uninterrupted operations and supports high-performance demands, which are essential for enterprise environments.

Effectively in identify and fix bugs early in the development lifecycle
When it comes to ShiftLeft, the most valuable feature is definitely its ease of use and cost-effectiveness. Previously, security professionals had to spend a lot of time and effort running around, asking people to fix issues in their products, architectures, code, and even networks. With ShiftLeft, everything becomes robust and secure from within. Instead of relying on external measures like Web Application Firewalls (WAF) that are applied from the outside in, ShiftLeft takes a proactive approach. It helps prevent issues from arising in the first place, making it much easier for both security teams and developers. It's also cost-effective because you don't have to constantly go back, make changes to the code, and then push it again. Writing secure code from the start ensures that there are no vulnerabilities when it goes live. So, I would say the main features of ShiftLeft are its cost-effectiveness and ease of adaptability or use.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform is stable."
"Crawling feature: Netsparker has very detail crawling steps and mechanisms. This feature expands the attack surface."
"This tool is really fast and the information that they provide on vulnerabilities is pretty good."
"Scan, proxify the application, and then detailed report along with evidence and remediations to problems."
"The scanner is light on the network and does not impact the network when scans are running."
"Netsparker has valuable features, including the ability to scan our website, an interactive approach, and security data integration."
"The most valuable feature of Invicti is getting baseline scanning and incremental scan."
"Invicti's best feature is the ability to identify vulnerabilities and manually verify them."
"When it comes to ShiftLeft, the most valuable feature is definitely its ease of use and cost-effectiveness."
 

Cons

"The higher level vulnerabilities like Cross-Site Scripting, SQL Injection, and other higher level injection attacks are difficult to highlight using Netsparker."
"Currently, there is nothing I would like to improve."
"The solution's false positive analysis and vulnerability analysis libraries could be improved."
"Netsparker doesn't provide the source code of the static application security testing."
"The scanning time, complexity, and authentication features of Invicti could be improved."
"It would be better for listing and attacking Java-based web applications to exploit vulnerabilities."
"They need to improve their support in the documentation. Their support mechanism is missing. Their responsiveness, technical staff, and these types of things need to be improved, and comprehensive documentation is required. They should have good self-service portal enhancement"
"The custom attack preparation screen might be improved."
"Having support from senior management is crucial in making it mandatory for teams to collaborate with the security team throughout the development process."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"OWASP Zap is free and it has live updates, so that's a big plus."
"I think that price it too high, like other Security applications such as Acunetix, WebInspect, and so on."
"The solution is very expensive. It comes with a yearly subscription. We were paying 6000 dollars yearly for unlimited scans. We have three licenses; basic, business, and ultimate. We need ultimate because it has unlimited scan numbers."
"We never had any issues with the licensing; the price was within our assigned limits."
"Netsparker is one of the costliest products in the market. It would help if they could allow us to scan multiple URLs on the same license."
"The price should be 20% lower"
"It is competitive in the security market."
"We are using an NFR license and I do not know the exact price of the NFR license. I think 20 FQDN for three years would cost around 35,000 US Dollars."
