Senior Manager, Security Engineering at ESS
Dynamic testing regularly identifies web vulnerabilities and has strong false positive confirmations
It has good false positive confirmations, confirmed issues identification, and proof of exploit-related features as part of it. We use Invicti for these things in our portfolios. The solution includes Proof-Based Scanning technology. Invicti is part of our SSDLC portfolio, and DAST dynamic testing is very important for our web applications and portfolios. For both the API endpoints and web applications, we do regular testing on a monthly basis for all our releases. Invicti does a good job. The only concern is on the performance side, but other than that, we find it really helpful in identifying web vulnerabilities. A full scan takes more time based on your website and other factors, but for us, it takes more than two to three days. The scan performance can be improved upon. When we check with them, they discuss proof-based scanning and related aspects. However, there could be intermittent results that could help us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution generates reports automatically and quickly."
"I would rate the stability as ten out of ten."
"I would definitely recommend to those who really want to know in-depth details of their applications/products regarding the security of their web system."
"One of the features I like about this program is the low number of false positives and the support it offers."
"Invicti has done a commendable job with respect to ROI, and with respect to being a cost-effective solution and one of the market leaders as an effective solution for SAST and DAST, Invicti has performed very well."
"It is a very good tool."
"I am impressed by the whole technology that they are using in this solution. It is really fast. When using netscan, the confirmation that it gives on the vulnerabilities is pretty cool. It is really easy to configure a scan in Netsparker Web Application Security Scanner. It is also really easy to deploy."
"It has improved the security of our code by scanning it and finding security defects."
"The tool is loaded with many features that give us ROI."
"The product is easy to use."
"This tool helps identify vulnerabilities. We then provide the report to the developers, who address the issues identified automatically. Its most valuable feature is CI/CD integration."
"The most valuable features of PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition are the vast amount of options and ease of use, and they frequently improve the solution every six months to a year."
"The most valuable part is that a beginner can run those scans and the V scanning of that particular vulnerability."
"The solution's extensions really expand the capabilities and features offered by the installation."
"Its automated scanning feature saves time."
"The most valuable features of PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition are the vast amount of options and ease of use. They frequently improve the solution every six months to a year. Additionally, if we want any more features we can upload a custom script to meet our needs."
 

Cons

"The licensing model should be improved to be more cost-effective. There are URL restrictions that consume our license. Compared to other DAST solutions and task tools like WebInspect and Burp Enterprise, Invicti is very expensive. The solution’s scanning time is also very long compared to other DAST tools. It might be due to proof-based scanning."
"Netsparker doesn't provide the source code of the static application security testing."
"The solution needs to make a more specific report."
"Asset scanning could be better. Once, it couldn't scan assets, and the issue was strange. The price doesn't fit the budget of small and medium-sized businesses."
"The proxy review, the use report views, the current use tool and the subset requests need some improvement. It was hard to understand how to use them."
"Invicti takes too long with big applications, and there are issues with the login portal."
"The support's response time could be faster since we are in different time zones."
"Currently, there is nothing I would like to improve."
"It would be beneficial if Burp Suite provided predefined payloads for each attack category, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting, to automate some tasks more effectively."
"The stability of the scans could be improved."
"The cost per license per user could be cheaper, specifically for individual licensing."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition should incorporate a static code analysis feature. One main issue we encounter is false positives. False positives can be challenging for developers."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
"It would be beneficial if Burp Suite provided predefined payloads for each attack category, such as SQL injection and cross-site scripting, to automate some tasks more effectively."
"The implementation of the solution is quite complicated and could be easier."
"There are features or functionality missing, but PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition does try to update frequently to alleviate the shortcomings."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Invicti is best suited for large enterprises. I don't think small and medium-sized businesses can afford it. Maintenance costs aren't that great."
"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."
"We never had any issues with the licensing; the price was within our assigned limits."
"I think that price it too high, like other Security applications such as Acunetix, WebInspect, and so on."
"It is competitive in the security market."
"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."
"The price should be 20% lower"
"OWASP Zap is free and it has live updates, so that's a big plus."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is neither a cheap nor an expensive product. PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is a good tool for companies."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition is expensive compared to other solutions."
"Although the solution can be a bit expensive for small companies, its pricing is fairly reasonable for its capabilities."
"For Professional, it's about $400 per year."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable and costs around 400 dollars per year."
