Vulnerability Scanning Tools

Vulnerability scanning enhances enterprise security

Enterprise applications are under attack today from a variety of threats. To protect the security of the enterprise, companies must be sure that their applications are free of flaws that could be exploited by hackers and malicious individuals to the detriment of the organization. Vulnerability scanning offers a way to find application backdoors, malicious code, and other threats that may exist in purchased software or applications developed internally. Most traditional vulnerability scanning tools require a significant investment in software and hardware, however, and require dedicated resources for training and ongoing maintenance and upgrades. Most vulnerability scanning tools test source code only, and they do not offer a comprehensive assessment since source code is rarely available for many purchased applications. That's why companies seeking an innovative and highly effective vulnerability scanning solution come to Veracode.

Veracode: On-demand vulnerability scanning tools

Veracode delivers an automated, on-demand, application security testing solution that is the most accurate and cost-effective approach to conducing a vulnerability scan. Veracode is cost-effective because it is an on-demand service, and not an expensive on-premises software solution. Whether companies are scanning for vulnerabilities when buying software or developing internal applications, they can simply submit applications to Veracode through an online analysis platform and get results within a matter of hours. Results are prioritized in a Fix-First Analysis, which takes into account the company's business objectives, levels of risk tolerance, level of threat each vulnerability represents, and those flaws that can be fixed fastest. The Fix-First Analysis enables developers to optimize their time, improving productivity and making vulnerability scanning more cost-efficient.

Veracode delivers comprehensive vulnerability scanning

Veracode is the industry's most accurate vulnerability scan tool because it combines three different testing methodologies: static analysis, dynamic analysis, and manual penetration testing for comprehensive vulnerability scanning testing. No other solution offers this breadth of assessment.
Veracode's static analysis provides an innovative and highly accurate testing technique called binary analysis. Where most vulnerability scanning tools look at application source code, Veracode actually scans binary code (also known as “compiled” or “byte” code). Unlike scanning source code (which is often ineffective, since source code may be unavailable for practical or proprietary reasons), scanning binary code allows the enterprise to review an entire application - 100 percent of code is scanned, delivering a far more accurate and comprehensive analysis.
