RP Rafael antonel P. Consultor TIC Telecommunications Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 3/11/2018 "the security of your applications starts here!" 5/5 What do you like best about Acunetix by Invicti? I like it because it detects several types of vulnerabilities among them the most annoying for my web applications, such as the sql injection, among other types of intrutions it keeps my platform protected, since I perform exhaustive scans every time one of my applications goes to production. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Acunetix by Invicti? one of the things that I dislike about this powerful software is that it uses the physical resources of my machine like ram memory, processors etc, when I am doing a scanner and my internet connection fails, it slows down due to the auristica that applies its sensor generating that my computer, hangs on some occasions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Acunetix by Invicti: the security in our applications is something fundamental since their success depends on them, an application with vulnerabilities can become lost for the company so before being put into production use the best acunetix I recommend it widely... Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Acunetix by Invicti solving and how is that benefiting you? in our company we protect ourselves a lot from hackers and implement different security mechanisms including the constant monitoring of our platforms, through different applications including acunetix, its sensor detects any anomaly or strange behavior that my application has due to any failure within of its source code or simply by backdoors left by some programmers, it is necessary that each application that will go to production is scanned by this wonderful tool to diagnose that it is stable and can go to production.

BR Bryan Ernesto R. Consultor TIC Telecommunications Enterprise (\> 1000 emp.) 3/10/2018 "one of the best vulnerability search engines" 5/5 What do you like best about Acunetix by Invicti? I like it for the ability to detect SQL injection vulnerabilities in all SQL commands, including SQL INSERT commands. You can not find SQL injection vulnerabilities with a black box scanner, the ability to test creation vulnerabilities and arbitrary file deletion. For example: through a vulnerable script a malicious user can create a file in the directory of the web application and execute it to have access permissions or delete sensitive files of the web application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What do you dislike about Acunetix by Invicti? when AcuSensor Technology is used, it communicates with the web server to know the configuration of the web application and the platforms, this generates an important consumption of the recourses of my machine, generating a latency, between my machine and the applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. Recommendations to others considering Acunetix by Invicti: I like it because unlike other vulnerability search engines AcuSensor Technology contains much more detailed information about the anomalies that can be achieved in scanned applications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com. What problems is Acunetix by Invicti solving and how is that benefiting you? I use this application to look for vulnerabilities, of the different applications before being put into production, it is worth noting that we take great care of our server and our web applications.
