Technical Director at Entrust Software Development India
Centralized security testing has improved vulnerability remediation and compliance reporting
I recommend more enhancements focusing on penetration testing for both SSL over HTTP and non-SSL over HTTP, specifically targeting the RCP Rich Client Platform and Equinox frameworks that allow on-premises desktop applications to be tested simultaneously. I believe those would significantly improve the tool in the future. I choose eight as my rating primarily because of the installer app; it becomes challenging to identify the actual vulnerabilities. Once we build this installer—rather than just working on the codebase—sometimes, we face gaps considering the build parameters and conversions to the installer. Identifying those gaps is an area that could use improvement after the installer or desktop application testing, which would be beneficial. That is the only reason; otherwise, I could easily rate it a ten out of ten given its smooth operational process.

Continuous code security has reduced vulnerabilities and provides real-time risk visibility
I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement. When I look at tools such as vulnerability detection tools, I focus on how the reporting could help fast-track risk mitigations. I don't want folks to just look at the severity rating, whether it's critical, high, or medium. I would love to see how that presents a risk. Meaning that if a particular vulnerability is compromised, it could be a low severity, but if it's compromised, what business impact does it have? With capabilities we have in AI and other technologies, I think we could do much more than just sharing vulnerability ratings or severity ratings for folks to act on. That approach is outdated. Something that communicates the value would make sense and could help drive or change habits. That's what I'm thinking, and that's why I say it's a big one, not just something small.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have seen clear compliance and risk control outcomes more than other operational metrics, including fewer process gaps during documentation and safety checks, strong consistency in following protocols for handling, traceability, and staff awareness, better audit readiness, a lower chance of procedure errors, and faster escalation when something appears out of standard, which is very important for us in the healthcare sector."
"I think the best features that Nucleus Security offers are purely the faster remediation to dev tools, which is crucial for managing, prioritizing, and fixing vulnerabilities while helping operational pipelines run these vulnerability management tools."
"Wiz Code has positively impacted my organization through the unified platform that gives the ability to shift left in security and detect issues before they go into production."
"The best features with Wiz Code give you a reasonable picture when it comes to vulnerabilities, which means you see the usual severity levels, you also get to see references on how to remediate vulnerabilities, and the fact that it has a visual dashboard helps all stakeholders, especially folks who need to remediate, to get that picture correctly and then take action."
"In my opinion, all the security features Wiz Code offers are the best."
 

Cons

"I choose eight as my rating primarily because of the installer app; it becomes challenging to identify the actual vulnerabilities."
"Protocols can be too complex in practice sometimes, and some processes can feel heavy and disconnected from our daily workflow."
"I have a big improvement in mind for Wiz Code, not a small improvement."
