Overall Satisfaction with Acunetix by Invicti

I had use case from one of our customers to establish security testing automation in DevSecOps pipeline. I was looking for such a tool and after lot of evaluations found Acunetix perfectly suited to the requirements. After initial PoC of few days with little configuration support from Invicti we decided to go for it and establish a platform for our end customers
  • Integration of tool with different IDE is great
  • Easy to scan code and identify vulnerabilities
  • Dashboard is easy to customise
  • Configuration of DevSecOps can be improved for ease
  • Dashboard can have API integration
  • Broaden the scope of vulnerabilities
  • Vulnerabilities scanning
  • DevSecOps interested testing
  • Visibility and remedial action recommendation
  • It helped improve ROI by 30%
  • Helped reduced manpower by 15%
  • Improved churn out of applications by 50%
In my opinion Acunetix fares good in DevSecOps pipeline better than Appspider. In terms of vulnerabilities scanning of dynamic applications I liked Rapid7, however we have better ROI with Acunetix. During 6 months of usage I tried to look into cost benefit analysis and could easily pick Acunetix and in terms of dashboards also I am impressed

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
