Scans web applications to identify vulnerabilities but need better support

Pros

"It scans web applications to identify vulnerabilities during deployment. "

Cons

"It is unclear how to build automation on Qualys. We do some automation, but not fully, because working is difficult."

Operates as a DAST tool, examining the application from an external perspective to identify security issues

Pros

"The vulnerability management feature is a strong one. And also the patch management feature."

Cons

" There's a distinction between internal and external scanning processes that could be streamlined. Currently, for internal scanning, specific configurations and scanner appliances need to be deployed within the network, which differs from the simpler setup for external scans. This dual process complicates the setup for comprehensive scanning coverage."

Scans the website with continuous monitoring and has an easy deployment

Pros

"The tool links vulnerabilities with DDIs and gives a complete overview of the application. The continuous monitoring capability is good."

Cons

"We have many websites. We don't force scanning on all of them at once because it's taking some time."
