Automate more with Netsparker
Netsparker scanners have a unique self-fine-tuning technology. You do not have to configure URL rewrite rules or custom 404 error pages. And when scanning a password protected website you have to simply specify the credentials without the need to record any login macros. With such automation you can scan 100s & 1000s of websites without wasting hours getting bogged down in configuring the scanners.
No need to manually verify web vulnerabilities
You do not have to manually verify the vulnerabilities the Netsparker scanner identify during a scan because it automatically exploit detected vulnerabilities in a safe and read-only way. The scanner also generates a proof of exploit highlighting its impact. Netsparker will alert you If a vulnerability cannot be verified automatically.
What Our Customers are Saying
This is probably the best web-app tool that I have ever seen. Of course, I am not a hacker... Really :) But I have reviewed some penetration test results and other tools, and of course I know a lot of hackers, so I can say that your tool covers all of the most important things.

The software is an important part of my security strategy which is in progress toward other services at OECD. And I find it better than external expertise. I had, of course, the opportunity to compare expertise reports with Netsparker ones. Netsparker was better, finding more breaches.

When we were evaluating web application security scanners, Netsparker was the scanner that identified most vulnerabilities without requiring any configuration changes. It also identified several SQL Injection and Cross-site Scripting vulnerabilities that other scanners did not identify.

We chose Netsparker since it is very easy to use. It helped our team increase the visibility into the security of our web applications,
It is more tailored to web application security and has features that allow the university to augment its web application security needs.
