Does anybody in the Forum have experience in utilizing the WSDL down load from WebInspek, or other scanners to configure their WAF solutions.

It's an excellent tool with some excellent (and constantly improving) utilities. Pete At 13:46 17/02/2006 +0000, Xyberpix wrote:

It also includes some invaluable utilities (Sql Injector, etc) that are a step above their open source competitors. -----Original Message----- From: Serg Belokamen [serg.belokamen@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, February 17, 2006 2:04 AM To: webappsec@securityfocus.com Subject: Tools comparison and evaluation question (AppScan) 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
