Metasploit vs. Trend Micro Cloud One - Application Security

It is easy to use with sufficient documentation on how to use the tools for end users or newbies. Experienced testers will find it easy to customise and configure the test cases. Just wished that I could have taken up a course on using this tool in my study days so that I could had explored more and improved my familiarity with the tool, unlike when working where access and time to explore the other features of the tool is limited

Scenarios where it's well suited - 1) AWS cloud environments where application security and ZTN is a must. 2) One-stop-shop for centralized discovery of apps/workloads. 3) Custom reporting client needs. 4) CI/CD pipeline - easy to design DevOps cycles.

Metasploit is an all around good suite of tools to test and validate potential vulnerabilites. Other tools have bits and pecies such as Nmap, Nessus, Burp Suite, etc. but Metasploit can function in the same way but more.
