Dedicated browser and repeater have improved my proxy testing and manual vulnerability checks
I'm hoping perhaps for something to make it easier, such as to define things where if a message or a response is such and such, automatically make a request that is such and such. Perhaps something like this because otherwise, nowadays we have to do it manually. Perhaps they can automate it a bit more. Perhaps they could add some automation to things, to see what we do manually, which it has the tools to do manually, and perhaps enable with a click of a button to do things automatically. I'm not too sure which, but I'm sure they can from a product management point of view, do things that we need to do two, three, or four steps manually regarding specific testing. For instance, we want to check something specific if it's this or if it's that. Perhaps to define it once and have it more automatic, perhaps.

Long-term endpoint security has protected our organization from ransomware and data loss
Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications Collaboration is not something we are currently using. We are not using FireEye Email Security right now. We are not using the cloud version of this product. It is not difficult to manage because our team is very well trained and aware of Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications endpoint security because we have been using it for more than 20 years. Our team is very well trained on the endpoint security. However, because we have a very distributed architecture of our organization, it is very difficult to change or replace on laptop or desktop computers. At most, only two or three engineers are involved. Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications is very robust and easy to handle data loss protection, which are very good features. We are also using Fortinet products. The vendor team is also monitoring and does proactive measures to protect from ransomware and other security threats. We have a service level agreement with the local vendor to maintain the solution and solve other issues. The overall review rating for this product is 8 out of 10.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The crawling capability is excellent."
"The automated scan is what I find most useful because a lot of customers will need it. Not every domain will be looking for complete security, they just need a stamp on the security key. For these kinds of customers, the scan works really well."
"I have found the best features to be the performance and there are a lot of additional plugins available."
"PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional is one of the best user-friendly solutions for getting the proxy set up."
"Since we began this practice for every application, our clients are really happy and value our work."
"The Repeater and the BApp extensions are particularly useful. Certain extensions, such as the Active Scan extensions and the Autoracer extension, are very good."
"This tool is more accurate than the other solutions that we use, and reports fewer false positives."
"It's good testing software."
"Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications positively impacts my organization by increasing security and reducing time, especially by using threat intelligence to validate signatures across all platforms, thus minimizing manual work."
"We actually saw reduced incidents with Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications, and it has reduced the response time for us because if there is a detection of high severity, Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications detects it quickly and we are able to respond to it promptly."
"Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications is very robust and easy to handle data loss protection, which are very good features."
"Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications has positively impacted my organization over the past four years, serving as one of the best security tools I have used."
 

Cons

"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"One thing that is not up to the mark in PortSwigger is web application testing. I found some issues with its performance and reporting. They should work on these and give us a better outcome."
"In the Professional version, we cannot link it with the CI/CD process."
"One area that can be improved, when compared to alternative tools, is that they could provide different reporting options and in different formats like PDF or something like that."
"There should be a heads up display like the one available in OWASP Zap."
"Sometimes the solution can run a little slow."
"Mitigating the issues and low confluence issues needs some improvement. Implementing demand with the ChatGPT under the web solution is an additional feature I would like to see in the next release."
"It should provide a better way to integrate with Jenkins so that DAST (dynamic application security testing) can be automated."
"Customer support for Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications is very good in theory. However, you must follow up with them for weeks and weeks for a single issue."
"Overall I find the platform useful; however, there should be ease of navigation and more actionable reporting to make investigations faster and the overall experience more efficient."
"I think Trellix IVX for Enterprise Applications can be improved by adding more involvement of artificial intelligence."
"The weak side is that it sometimes slows down the desktop computer or laptop computer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"PortSwigger is reasonably-priced. It's fair."
"We are using the community version, which is free."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"For a country such as Sri Lanka, the pricing is not reasonable."
"At $400 or $500 per license paid annually, it is a very cheap tool."
"The pricing of the solution is cost-effective and is best suited for small and medium-sized businesses."
"The pricing of the solution is reasonable. We only need to pay for the annual subscription. I rate the pricing five out of ten."
"Our licensing cost is approximately $400 USD per year."
