Featured Review
Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The feature I find most valuable is the traffic generator.""CyberFlood's best features are its user-friendliness and scheduling function.""Our customers use it to check for unauthorized file transfer.""CyberFlood is flexible."

More Spirent CyberFlood Pros →

"We have found multiple issues in our embedded system network protocols, related to buffer overflow. We have reduced some of these issues.""The product is related to US usage with TLS contact fees, i.e. how more data center connections will help lower networking costs.""Whatever the test suit they give, it is intelligent. It will understand the protocol and it will generate the test cases based on the protocol: protocol, message sequence, protocol, message structure... Because of that, we can eliminate a lot of unwanted test cases, so we can execute the tests and complete them very quickly."

Cons
"I would also like to see updates on a more frequent schedule.""The solution needs more ports, more speed, and more gigabytes.""CyberFlood's accessibility and support for multiple browsers could be better.""Sometimes, when you configure parameters the hardware can't run, it will get stuck at those points without telling you what happened. It would be helpful if the error reporting provided more details about why the test setting is not running. It would be nice if there were a space in the hardware module for you to add some external hardware for more rigorous testing."

More Spirent CyberFlood Cons →

"Codenomicon Defensics should be more advanced for the testing sector. It should be somewhat easy and flexible to install.""It does not support the complete protocol stack. There are some IoT protocols that are not supported and new protocols that are not supported.""Sometimes, when we are testing embedded devices, when we trigger the test cases, the target will crash immediately. It is very difficult for us to identify the root cause of the crash because they do not provide sophisticated tools on the target side. They cover only the client-side application... They do not have diagnostic tools for the target side. Rather, they have them but they are very minimal and not very helpful."
