Why Fortify WebInspect Deserves a Look ?

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates Fortify WebInspect from other similar products?

Its comprehensive attack library delves deeper into your application's attack surface, ferreting out a broader range of security flaws compared to its competitors. This meticulous approach doesn't sacrifice accessibility, Scalability and flexibility are hallmarks of WebInspect. Whether you favor on-premises control, cloud convenience, or a hybrid mix, WebInspect adapts to your infrastructure. Comprehensive compliance management features are another feather in its cap, seamlessly guiding you through the maze of industry regulations and internal security policies.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

My favorite aspect is WebInspect's focus on empowering developers. Its detailed reports and seamless integration with development tools facilitate a collaborative security culture, encouraging developers to prioritize and address vulnerabilities within their own workflows.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The primary area for improvement lies in its limited out-of-the-box integration with other security testing solutions for a broader security posture. Expanding its native integrations or offering robust APIs for custom integrations would strengthen its overall security coverage.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

1. Consider your security needs: If comprehensive DAST with developer-friendly features is your priority, WebInspect excels. 2. Evaluate integration requirements: Assess your need for deeper integration with SAST, IAST, or other security tools. 3. Look for customization options: Ensure the level of customization aligns with your desired reporting and scan configuration flexibility. 4. Trial before purchase: Utilize the available trial to experience its features and assess its suitability for your specific environment.
