"Making hidden issues visible - real eyes opener"

What do you like best about DerScanner?

When we first got our hands on DerScanner for our company's financial application, we were in for quite a journey. The initial phase was a deep dive into the source code, a daunting 30,000 lines that seemed like a mountain to climb. Surprisingly, DerScanner made quick work of it, detecting only a handful of vulnerabilities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about DerScanner?

Actually we considered a cloud version at first. However after a discussion with DerScanner team we were recommended to stick with on-prem implementation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is DerScanner solving and how is that benefiting you?

When DerScanner analyzed the compiled executable files, it was like peeling back layers of an onion. The analysis revealed a staggering 500,000 lines of code, uncovering a myriad of vulnerabilities, several hundred to be precise. It turned out that most of our app was stitched together with third-party components — a patchwork of freeware, internet-sourced codes, modules, and libraries, all used to cut down on development time.

This was something we didn't expect to see. DerScanner didn't just scan our application; it uncovered a hidden world within our code, highlighting the risks we didn't even know were there. This level of thoroughness and the insights it provided have been invaluable to our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
