Acunetix by Invicti vs. Aqua Cloud Native Security Platform

It is best suited for integrated security testing of applications which are hosted on web servers. The most important thing is the integration of DevSecOps which is crucial in today's fast paced environment of rapid development. The core of Acunetix is application scanning which is really great and I highly recommend this product to everyone

• The UI/UX of the Aqua platform has several issues, especially with the sign up/in flow, authentication, alerts and display of results
• Missing a few prominent notification channels for alerts such as Datadog, Webhooks
• Lacks complete granularity in RBAC with the ability to set permissions based on the cloud
• Some parts of the cocumentation for connecting an Oracle Cloud account is not up to update or clear

Incentivized

The UI and UX of the platform requires some work since the platform is not for all screen sizes and the experience with certain features such as authentication and creating alerts is not great. The session times out while performing an action and having to repeat the entire action once again, which is not a great experience. Adding notification channels while creating the alerts is not seamless. But the platform has good UX with some great documentation for integrations along with the ability to customise dashboards.

ZAP is a free tool, and adequate. But it is to that extent less friendly. I would not be as confident of the results and it definitely can't produce reports on par with Acunetix. There would be a lot of legwork on our end if we desired to switch to this tool.

Aqua Cloud Native Security Platform is easy to implement and manage compare the Dome9.

• Saved money compared to other commercial scanners, especially over the long run.
• Scan speed seems to be pretty good compared to some of the bulkier commercial products out there. However, that largely has to do with proper configuration.
• A downside is that is requires a bit of extra work just to get it set up to scan APIs, web services, etc.

• ROI is high with our Aqua project.
