Excerpt
Excerpt The goal of the WASSEC is to create a vendor-neutral document to help guide web
application security professionals during web application scanner evaluations. This
document provides a comprehensive list of features that should be considered when
conducting a web application security scanner evaluation. Different users will place
varying levels of importance on each feature, and the WASSEC provides the user
with the flexibility to take this comprehensive list of potential scanner features,
narrow it down to a shorter list of features that are important to the user, assign
weights to each feature, and conduct a formal evaluation to determine which
scanning solution best meets the user's needs. |
