Hi, I'm currently looking at evaluating some of the commercial tools in this area, I've not started, so I can't quote on the relatively qualities, but the list of tools I've put together is Commercial Tools ----------------- SPI Webinspect Watchfire AppScan Cenzic HailStorm Protegrity Scando Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner In terms of Open Source The only projects I'm aware of (and I'd be interested to hear of others) are Beretta from OWASP and Cruiser from dyadlabs, and as far as I'm aware neither is at a production state at the moment.

Hi All,
I am currently looking at using/evaluating a tool called AppScan (by
watchfire.com).
So the question is in two parts and ASAP reply would be greatly
appreciated.
First:
Without starting a flame war (hopefully) or marketing campaign
(another hopefully) can any one tell me abut their experience with the
software, what you find useful about it, what not, any annoyances,
missing functionality, etc.
Second:
Can anyone recommend any simular type of software, preferably open
source (although not at all essential), and describe its performance,
usability and "usefulness" so to speak using AppScan as a reference
point.
Thanks,
Serg
