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

We use WebInspect on a daily basis too, and have done so since 
version 1.0.  It's an excellent tool with some excellent (and 
constantly improving) utilities.

As far as tools go, it really is a worthwhile addition.

Also, WebInspect is a very good (commercial) tool.  It also includes
some invaluable utilities (Sql Injector, etc) that are a step above
their open source competitors.

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
