Excellent Vulnerability Assessment Tool
I like how easy it is to use in order to identify vulnerabilities in our applications which we have yet to be aware of. It's also very helpful in finding security risks within an application that you're not familiar with. The only thing about this tool I dislike is the price tag. If you are able to afford paying for such programs please go ahead! We were looking into ways to find new issues in our system but didn't know where to start. This program was pretty much self explanatory so all we had to do was sign up and get started.
Pros
- Great way at identifying problems quickly
- Easy interface makes everything user friendlyThe downside? Nothing really, since there wasn;t anything bad from my experience using checkmark anyways.
- Very expensive if your employer doesn’tsupport something similar (like Microsoft) or can even offer its own software as part fo their standard tools package.It does make sense
Cons
- It is hard to say
