An AppSec solution formerly from Micro Focus, spanning SCA, SAST and DAST that supports the breadth and management of any application portfolio, used to secure code. Features API discovery and testing for any application, throughout the software lifecycle.
I think Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect could fit really any organization well that needs to perform static code analysis on their applications (they do have dynamic scanning but I don't have any experience using it). Different static analysis tools scan code differently, Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect requires you to provide a full build of the application to be submitted with debugging files which could be easy or hard depending on how your organization is building it's apps.
Since every firm needs to perform static code analysis on their applications, I believe Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect would work well for them (they also offer dynamic scanning, although I haven't used it myself). Different static analysis tools scan code in different ways, and Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect asks you to submit a complete build of the application along with debugging files. Depending on how your company builds its apps, this requirement may be simple or challenging.
It is a cloud-based platform which can provide us a very useful and unique features like Application Assessment, Scans, Vulnerability Test, Comprehensive Reporting, Monitoring, etc. Fortify by Open Text is also outstanding in various parameters for the support and integration and it is highly adaptable in various DevOps Program where you need secure app testing with all given features.
Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect is better when it comes to speed, integration and detection capabilities as compared to Insight Appsec. What I loved the most is the broad coverage of vulnerabilities it identified as against Insight Appsec. Apart from detection capabilities the time taken is also less compared to Insight Appsec. Given the performance of Micro Focus Fortify WebInspect I would strongly recommend to everyone looking for DevSecOps and application security solutions
