Show More ##### ## Testing (7) Command-Line Tools Allows users to access a terminal host system and input command sequences. Manual Testing Allows users to perfrom hands-on live simulations and penetration tests. Test Automation Runs pre-scripted security tests without requiring manual work. Compliance Testing Allows users to test applications for specific compliance requirements. Black-Box Scanning Scans functional applications externally for vulnerabilities like SQL injection or XSS. Detection Rate The rate at which scans accurately detect all vulnerabilities associated with the target. False Positives The rate at which scans falsely indicate detection of a vulnerability when no vulnerabilitiy legitimately exists. Show More ##### ## Monitoring (3) Continuous Image Assurance Provides image verification features to establish container approval requirements and continuously monitor for policy violations to identify containers with known vulnerabilities, malware, and other threats.

Detection Rate The rate at which scans accurately detect all vulnerabilities associated with the target. False Positives The rate at which scans falsely indicate detection of a vulnerability when no vulnerabilitiy legitimately exists. Automated Scans Runs pre-scripted vulnerability scans without requiring manual work. Show More ##### ## Network (3) Compliance Testing Allows users to scan applications and networks for specific compliance requirements. Perimeter Scanning Analyzes network devices, servers and operating systems for vulnerabilities. Configuration Monitoring Monitors configuration rule sets and policy enforcement measures and document changes to maintain compliance. Show More ##### ## Application (3) Manual Application Testing Allows users to perfrom hands-on live simulations and penetration tests. Static Code Analysis Scans application source code for security flaws without executing it. Black Box Testing Scans functional applications externally for vulnerabilities like SQL injection or XSS.
