It is an easy tool used by the security team to identify, isolate, and demonstrate the weakness and allow for verification of the remediations. As an industry-recognized tool, there is no dispute from different vendors when using the tool.

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.
