Works at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees
Has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal
While Zafran Security is already a powerful tool, there are areas where it could be further improved to provide even greater value. One key area for enhancement is the searching capabilities within its vulnerabilities module. By incorporating the ability to create Boolean searches, users would gain the ability to apply more complex filters and customize their search criteria. This would greatly enhance the precision and efficiency with which security teams can identify and prioritize vulnerabilities. Having such tailored search capabilities would save time and resources by narrowing down vast lists of vulnerabilities to those that meet specific parameters relevant to our unique risk environment. Additionally, integrating more robust reporting and visualization tools would be advantageous. Enhanced dashboards that offer customizable visual representations of risk configurations and threat landscapes would facilitate better communication with stakeholders, making it easier to explain vulnerabilities and the rationale behind certain security measures. This would also aid in demonstrating the improvements and value derived from existing security investments to leadership and non-technical team members.

Enables time-saving automated scanning and brute force attacks
The most appreciated functionality of PortSwigger Burp Suite is its ability to perform brute force attacks automatically. Its automated scanning feature saves time. Additionally, using this tool provides significant security insights, making our testing process more efficient and comprehensive, leading to considerable time savings, which in turn translates to financial benefits.

Windows Security Patching Operation III (Cyber Operations) at CBTS
Have maintained accurate vulnerability scans and gained actionable remediation insights across thousands of servers
Tenable Vulnerability Management agents are very lightweight, and the results we get are very accurate. The solutions they provide to us, assuming if one vulnerability exists, there will be a solution. The resolution they give us in wording will be the best solution. The exploit rates and the reports we get provide a lot of information, making it very easy for us to verify.The main benefit of integration with Tenable Vulnerability Management is that there will be no lack of missing vulnerabilities when it comes to the patching environment. That is one of the key aspects of why we have integrated Tenable to our patching tools. It has a vast capacity of pushing the data to our tools due to its capability and compatibility. That is also one of the reasons why we are using Tenable Vulnerability Management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We saw benefits from Zafran Security almost immediately after deploying it."
"Overall, we have seen about eighty-seven percent reduction of the number of vulnerabilities that require urgency to remediate, specifically the number of criticals."
"We are able to see the real risk of a vulnerability on our environment with our security tools."
"With Zafran Security, it integrates with your security controls, allowing you to take that risk score and reduce it based on the controls in place or increase the risk based on different factors, such as if the issue is internet reachable or if there's an exploit in the wild."
"Zafran is an excellent tool."
"Zafran has become an indispensable tool in our cybersecurity arsenal."
"The product is easy to use."
"The tool is loaded with many features that give us ROI."
"The most valuable part of it was probably the ability to intercept and modify calls."
"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 solution's extensions really expand the capabilities and features offered by the installation."
"The product's initial setup phase was super easy."
"We are in the early stage of using the solution making it difficult to fully determine the best features. However, we have noticed the CMDB and device discovery features look valuable at this time."
"Parallel scans can be done with PortSwigger Burp Suite Enterprise Edition."
"You can customize each point in new scans."
"The solution creates vulnerability tickets within the VM profile but should also include them under the Remediation tab so the fixes can be viewed in the ticketing queue."
"The solution provides seamlessness, a perfect UI, and identity management for office operations. We are most vulnerable to users. Therefore, it is crucial to implement the right solution to ensure proper user access and resource management."
"It has greatly impacted us by providing asset visibility."
"The dashboard is pretty intuitive, and it lets you do a drill-down analysis of each vulnerability. That is something that brings a lot of value to the organization."
"Tenable Vulnerability Management agents are very lightweight, and the results we get are very accurate."
"The tool has an easy-to-use interface."
"One of the most valuable features of Tenable.io Vulnerability Management is its exportability, which allows us to conduct risk assessments efficiently."
 

Cons

"The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements."
"Initially, we were somewhat concerned about the scalability of Zafran due to our large asset count and the substantial amount of information we needed to process."
"I think the ability to have some enhanced reporting capabilities is something they can improve on, as they have good reports but we have asked for some specific reporting enhancements."
"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 implementation of the solution is quite complicated and could be easier."
"From my personal experience, the solution's performance could be improved."
"The product needs to have the ability to evaluate more."
"Scalability could be better."
"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."
"There's definitely room for improvement. There are lots of false positives. Once I do the manual assessment, it comes as a false positive. They need to improve the Enterprise Edition, especially the part that gives false positives."
"The solution is a bit expensive."
"More flexibility is required compared to other solutions."
"I would evaluate Tenable Vulnerability Management's customer service and technical support as average."
"The product is a bit expensive."
"Tenable could improve visibility into assets, including automated asset tagging. You should be able to automatically tag assets based on location, function, ownership, etc. That would help us because we spend a lot of time identifying and tagging assets by hand."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"The UI has room for improvement."
"The product could be easier to set up on the cloud."
"It can have more integration."
