Appknox vs. HCL AppScan

I would say that HCL AppScan is very simple to understand and use since it uses a user-friendly interface and the terminologies that are used in the interface of the application is very clear. We can automate a scan with any third party like Jenkins. The fact, I don't like is the time takes to execute the application, it should be better.

• AppScan works well in finding application vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting and all of the OWASP top 10.
• Flexible reporting allows us to generate executive reports for application owners as well as separate technical reports for developers and system engineers.
• Technical reports include remediation information and cross reference CVSS scores
• Because it maintains data on all repeated assessments it helps us to do trending and metrics on compliance

• The functions you want, the points that are difficult to understand.
• Issues presented in the vulnerability diagnostic report may not be fully explained and not well understood.
• You may think it is very basic and natural, "diagnose screen after login" "diagnose according to input transition ⇒ confirmation ⇒ completion" but to do all this, you need regular expressions, and macros, there are many products that require you to write scripts.

When we used Veracode, it takes a-lot of time to run a source code analysis. It's user interface is also bit clumsy. So we switched to HCL AppScan. It enables enterprises to scan internal and external applications for vulnerabilities. It provides quick and easy access to the most updated security guidelines by scanning applications against the OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities.

• Reduced manual effort by 20-30%
• Integrate 3-4 security solutions with other tools in the system
• prevent sql injection attacks in our business
