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.

Effective, fast risk reduction with critical threat intelligence updates
The dashboarding and reporting functionality of Zafran Security is an area that definitely could use some improvements. Overall, you get some dashboards and widgets to start with that are helpful, but customization was lacking. It is definitely a weaker point of the product right now, but am confident this will be changing soon!

"The most valuable part is that a beginner can run those scans and the V scanning of that particular vulnerability."
"The product is easy to use."
"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."
"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 initial setup is straightforward."
"The solution's extensions really expand the capabilities and features offered by the installation."
"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."
