The initial installation of Fortify Application Defender is more complex than the SonarQube, but it is not too difficult to do from scratch. Last year we did the installation in a new environment from scratch and we did not have problem.

The initial setup is fairly straightforward. It does require the deployment of an agent, but this is not unlike every other platform that is application-specific.

The deployment requires collaboration between the security team, who's typically running the application security program, and the operations team, who's responsible for the deployment and management of the hardware that the applications run on. These two teams really have to be engaged from an implementation standpoint to make sure that the plan fits and has input from both perspectives.

The initial setup is straightforward but the length of time required for deployment depends on the environment. In our development environment, we can deploy this solution in five minutes. However, in our pre-production and production environments, it takes more time because the platform needs to be more mature.

The tool's deployment is easy and takes four hours to deploy. 

The initial setup can vary depending on the client's use case. We have a professional service department that handles the POD. This includes installation, configuration, training, deployment, knowledge transfer and support after that if needed. 

The initial setup is pretty straightforward. You need less than three people to maintain the solution after implementation.
