I primarily use Fortify Application Defender to assess whether our products can defend against applications.

I work for a local distributor for Micro Focus. We provide customers with a proof of values and we're showing them in deep dive into the main benefits of this highly technical product while trying to patch together different technologies, starting with the developing phase.

I do not use this product personally. Rather, I implement it for other people. The general use case is application-specific threat blocking. Most of our customers use it as an augment to their WAF.

We use this solution for inspecting our security, such as checking to see if our developers are securing their code properly. For example, we have to ensure that they are not inadvertently exposing any IP addresses or passwords. We have to be cautious because most of our applications are related to banking and the financial domain. Fortify Application Defender accomplishes this by performing source code analysis, and it scans using agents. The source code check involves static code analysis to see if things like passwords are exposed.
