"Darwin Attack Platform 2.0 is straightforward and easy to understand"

5/5

What do you like best about Evolve Security?

The new Darwin Attack platform interface is straightforward and easy to navigate. I readily identified the process for working through each identified vulnerability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evolve Security?

Some files I tried to upload were not allowed by the platform when posting on individual vulnerabilities. A list of what is allowed and not allowed for the different types of posts when choosing to upload would be helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Evolve Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

The Darwin Attack platform provides a secure and comprehensive location to track the penetration testing projects our organization has contracted with Evolve Security.

It designates the Evolve staff who are working on the project, a list of assets to be tested, any vulnerabilities found, as well as all scopes for any current or previous testing phases.

There is a thorough narrative of each identified vulnerability, with links to best practices, remediation suggestions, and the discovery methodology used. Documentation of vulnerability remediation is quite simple to enter into the platform. It was helpful that I could document a risk as being accepted and still add notes as to why. Filtering findings by risk level and status to quickly sort results helps to tag which ones were the most critical to resolve and which vulnerabilities still required work to close.

The platform maintains a linear process for each vulnerability that involves identification, validation, remediation and retesting. Each stage of the process is marked, making it easy to know the status of each vulnerability and, thus, whose responsibility the next step is.

Returning to earlier testing projects was necessary to compare results and remediations when reviewing vulnerabilities. Since these are archived within the platform, there is no need to review documentation elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Expert Cybersecurity Testing with Evolve's Darwin Attack"

5/5

What do you like best about Evolve Security?

Firstly, I was impressed with the level of professionalism and expertise displayed by the team at Evolve. They were able to identify potential vulnerabilities in our system that we weren't even aware of, which was very reassuring as we strive to keep our data secure.

The use of the Darwin Attack tool by Evolve was particularly impressive. It allowed for a more comprehensive analysis of our security system, and the results were clear and easy to understand. I appreciated the level of detail in the report provided by Evolve, which made it easy for us to take appropriate action to address any weaknesses.

The communication from Evolve throughout the testing process was also exceptional. They were responsive to any questions or concerns we had, and were always clear and concise in their explanations. The team was also very respectful of our time, and ensured that the testing process did not disrupt our day-to-day operations.

Overall, I would highly recommend Evolve and their Darwin Attack pen test security tool to any company looking for top-notch cybersecurity testing. The level of expertise, professionalism, and clear communication displayed by the team at Evolve was truly impressive, and gave us confidence in our security measures. Thank you, Evolve!

What do you dislike about Evolve Security?

Darwin Attack is a powerful and comprehensive penetration testing tool that is widely used in the cybersecurity industry to identify vulnerabilities in computer systems and networks. It is known for its advanced capabilities and ability to simulate real-world attack scenarios, which can help organizations improve their security posture and protect against cyber threats. However, like any technology or software tool, Darwin Attack may not be suitable for every organization's specific needs or preferences, so it's important to evaluate it based on your specific requirements and goals. Ultimately, it's best to consult with a cybersecurity expert to determine the best approach to securing your systems and networks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Evolve Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Darwin Attack is a powerful penetration testing tool that helps to identify vulnerabilities in computer systems and networks. By simulating real-world attack scenarios, Darwin Attack can help to identify weaknesses in an organization's security defenses, allowing them to take proactive steps to prevent potential cyber attacks.

One of the key problems that Darwin Attack is solving is the need for comprehensive and reliable security testing. Traditional security testing methods such as vulnerability scans and manual testing are often time-consuming, incomplete, and can miss critical vulnerabilities that could be exploited by cybercriminals. Darwin Attack addresses this issue by providing a comprehensive and automated testing tool that is specifically designed to identify vulnerabilities that might be missed by other testing methods.

By using Darwin Attack for annual penetration testing, organizations can benefit from a more complete and detailed understanding of their security posture. This can help them to proactively identify and address vulnerabilities before they can be exploited by attackers, reducing the risk of a data breach or other security incident.

In addition to improving security, Darwin Attack can also benefit organizations by helping them to comply with regulatory requirements. Many industry regulations and standards, such as PCI DSS, HIPAA, and ISO 27001, require organizations to perform regular security testing and demonstrate that they are taking proactive steps to protect sensitive data. By using Darwin Attack, organizations can meet these requirements and maintain compliance with industry regulations.

Overall, Darwin Attack is solving the problem of comprehensive and reliable security testing, and is helping organizations to improve their security posture, reduce risk, and maintain compliance with industry regulations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Solid Vulnerability Management Product!"

5/5

What do you like best about Evolve Security?

Darwin Attack's UI is clean and easy to navigate. The new "timeline"-like feature adds a simple, secure way to communicate with the Evolve team, allowing users to quickly and simply reference specific projects in each message.

Also, the file downloads/uploads tab contains all project files from both the client and Evolve, making it easy to retrieve completed reports and upload documents related to upcoming engagements. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evolve Security?

As a customer of Evolve, I've yet to find anything in the Darwin Attack portal that isn't useful or helpful. All the information I need to reference to create documentation for my employer is centrally located and tidily organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Informative tool with great resources and customer service"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Evolve Security?

Summarized view of vulnerabilities. The news feed with the easy ability to communicate with the team. Ability to review and track future and past projects detailing the vulns found. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Evolve Security?

A few things we would love to see in the application are; the lack of ability to link external tickets to each vulnerability, when having the same assets (different ports) causes multiple vulns in the view so it shows higher numbers. Lastly, the inability to specify each asset as internal and external, meaning we have IPs for our test environments and IPs for our production environment and have the ability to decipher between the two easily would allow for prioritizing which issues to fix sooner. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Evolve Security solving and how is that benefiting you?

Being confident handing our software to our customers with confidence that there are no security issues within our application is a great weight off our shoulders. We have certain limitations on what and how we can validate against our code changes and being partnered with you allows us to cover a much more comprehensive range of testing for our application.
