Find out what your peers are saying about Noname Security, Salt Security, Checkmarx and others in API Security."It's really great. I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. I haven't encountered any instability issues."
"The most valuable feature of Tenable Nessus is website scanning."
"I have experience with it on my attack stations, and it's pretty good to optimize. Personally, I think Nessus is quite a good product."
"With the Tenable Nessus enterprise edition, you have unlimited licenses to scan the device."
"The most valuable feature of Tenable Nessus is the GUI and user-friendliness. Additionally, the environment is easy to work with."
"Scanners and reports using CIS templates ("de-facto" standard, easy to fix and to locate correction tips at documentation), tests against cloud providers, database profiles, several types of telecom devices, and others highly customizable scans."
"I have found the vulnerability assessment and the reports to be useful."
"I like its ease of use. It has the script that is pre-built in it, and you just got to know which ones you're looking for."
"Easy to set up vulnerability scanner with good stability and a responsive technical support team."
"The integration part could be a bit extended."
"Multiple user access would be an area for improvement from a user-access perspective. A role-based access control feature would be great because at present, there is a limitation with only one account. If that account gets compromised or gets locked, then we will encounter problems."
"Tenable Nessus application device assessment is one of the top tools. However, in the application security assessment, there are other tools that provide better, and more accurate findings."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say its reporting portion."
"They could make their reporting a little better."
"The professional version is not very scalable."
"It would be better if they had application-level support for mobile devices. They don't have anything to scan mobile devices. Tenable Nessus doesn't have a mobile application vulnerability assessment. I also have issues with the false positive rates. The product has limited features."
"The reports should be improved in Tenable Nessus. For example, when you are auditing compliance with CIS standards. It provides very poor reports."
"We would like to have the option of using the solution for the cloud as well as on-premises with the same license at the same time. That would be very helpful."
