CUSTOMER NEEDS
Traditional application security scanners perform well when discovering vulnerabilities in some of the more mature web technologies, such as Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and Common Gateway Interface (CGI), but they lack the intelligence required to scan emerging Web 2.0 technologies, such as Ajax, Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP), service-oriented architecture (SOA), Rich Site Summary (RSS) and Atom, as well as more dynamic technologies, such as JavaScript and Flash. Legacy web application scanners are simply not designed to navigate and interpret today's web applications with active content, mandatory two-factor authentication and other advancements. Simply put, traditional scanners cannot see the entire application. As a result, traditional scanners fail to discover exploitable security vulnerabilities that exist in the more dynamic and complex regions of modern web applications. This results in an unacceptable level of false negatives. Customer needed a solution to block all these threats
