In HCL AppScan automation maintain a reasonable pace of review and remediation of flaws for our apps. HCL AppScan is a cloud-based enterprise mobile application security testing solution for Android and iOS applications developed using Java, .Net or Objective-C. So it covers all our area and It consists of three components: AppScan Source Edition for developing and testing apps internally, AppScan Standard Edition for testing internally or externally, and AppScan Enterprise Edition for large enterprises who need to secure their entire mobile application portfolio across the organization with multiple device types.

  • AppScan works well in finding application vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting and all of the OWASP top 10.
  • Flexible reporting allows us to generate executive reports for application owners as well as separate technical reports for developers and system engineers.
  • Technical reports include remediation information and cross reference CVSS scores
  • Because it maintains data on all repeated assessments it helps us to do trending and metrics on compliance

Both solutions are decent, however, I had team members who had the experience working with HCL AppScan. Also, the product was priced nominally which suited our budget. Further, HCL AppScan's user community was bigger and many learning resources were freely available which helped junior peers learn quickly and eliminate any issues

  • There are countless implementations to accomplish the same thing, and so many configurations are required.
  • Even if you test it finished and find no vulnerabilities, there is no point if you just get the error screen.
  • Until now, I was worried about vulnerabilities and security in software development, but I think it was good to find the vulnerability problem quickly with HCL AppScan.

Appknox Screenshots

Screenshot of Appknox automated scanner is easy to use and has vast API compatibilities which make it simple to integrate into the mobile Application Development cycle, providing complete automation of SAST, DAST, and Application Program Interface(API) Testing.Screenshot of FileID: This is a unique serial number get auto-assigned by the dashboard and has multiple use cases such as compare feature & look for assistance. Namespace: The namespace or bundle ID are fetched from the binary itself, as based on the namespace the scanner curates different uploads and creates new projects. Platform: This is the second category based on which the scanner differentiates between two files having the same namespaces. The dashboard supports IOS, Android & Windows Application. Version & Version Code: These details are Auto-fetched from the binary and can be used for later for comparison & tracking uploads over time.Screenshot of Static Application Security Testing (SAST) can be considered as testing an application from the inside out by examining its source code or application binaries for issues based on the configuration which point towards a security vulnerability.Screenshot of A Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) analysis is generally specifically designed to detect conditions indicative of a security vulnerability in an application while in its running state.Screenshot of A Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) analysis is generally specifically designed to detect conditions indicative of a security vulnerability in an application while in its running state.Screenshot of If this function is enabled, the scanner will detect & capture all the API calls made & API End Points used during the dynamic scan session.

HCL AppScan Screenshots
