Saved by using multiple Web scanners…again.
25 Jul 2008I’m in the middle of a project analyzing the security of an e-commerce system. I found a lot of good stuff using WebInspect including one cross-site scripting flaw. However, the cross-site scripting issue was a little lame and next to impossible to re-create. So I decided to turn Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner loose on it just to see what it could find. Low and behold…four more cross-site scripting vulns! Wow.
Like I’ve said before, if you’re going to uncover the most Web security flaws you’ve got to use multiple tools.

“A business associate referred our company to Principle Logic when we were seeking a resource to perform vulnerability /penetration testing for our external and internal networks. We found Kevin Beaver to be professional, well informed, and easy to work with. His testing did not disrupt our networks, and his progress updates were timely.
His final report was very thorough and included security recommendations for our network environment. The executive leadership was so impressed with Kevin’s security expertise, they have extended their agreement to continue to perform periodic testing. We highly recommend Kevin Beaver and Principle Logic as a resource for network security testing.”
