WebInspect Enterprise Edition
Find out how WebInspect Enterprise Edition addresses security throughout the application lifecycle.
WebInspect Enterprise Edition supports and is designed specifically and uniquely for enterprise-wide deployment, providing usability at every phase of the web application lifecycle - development, qa, production and audit.
WebInspect creates a seamless Secure Coding Process that establishes guidelines and variables, and automatically indicates whether an application functions properly and securely on its own, in a test environment and in the real world. By implementing web application assessment practices at the initial steps in the development lifecycle, enterprises can remediate vulnerabilities before web applications are placed into production, saving time and money.
WebInspect Adaptive-Agent technology is a sophisticated set of heuristics that enable the products to apply intelligent application level security checks. This technology is a multi-phased approach to web application assessments.
As you initiate an assessment, WebInspect products assign "Assessment Agents" that dynamically catalog all areas of a web application. As these agents complete the assessment, findings are reported back to a main security engine that analyzes the results. WebInspect products will then launch "Threat Agents" to evaluate the gathered information and apply attack algorithms to determine what vulnerabilities exist and the severity of those vulnerabilities.
With this smart approach, WebInspect continuously applies appropriate assessment resources that adapt to the specific application environment. This unique patent-pending technology makes WebInspect the most dynamic and comprehensive web application assessment product available today.

1 Through the WebInspect Visual Web Assessment Console (VWAC), you designate which application or web service you want to analyze. You can also select which type of assessment to run as well as which policy to use for each web application assessment. Simply type in the URL and press go.
2 WebInspect uses Adaptive-Agent™ Technology to conduct the web application assessment. Adaptive-Agent Technology is a sophisticated set of heuristics that enables WebInspect to apply intelligent application-level vulnerability checks and accurately identify security issues while minimizing false positives.
3 WebInspect begins the Crawl phase of the application using Assessment-Agents to dynamically catalog all areas. As these agents complete their assessment, findings are reported back to the main security engine to analyze the results. WebInspect then launches Threat-Agents during the Audit phase that evaluate the gathered information and apply attack algorithms to determine the presence and severity of vulnerabilities.
4 The VWAC then correlates the results and presents them in an easy to understand format.
