Best Penetration Testing Tools with a Free Trial

Application security is noisy and overly complicated. The good news: you can relieve that unnecessary noise and dramatically reduce your risk of attacks with Invicti. Keeping up with security is more manageable with accurate, automated testing that scales as your needs shift and grow. That's where Invicti shines. With a leading dynamic application security testing solution (DAST), Invicti helps teams automate security tasks and save hundreds of hours each month by identifying the vulnerabilities that really matter. Combining dynamic with interactive testing (DAST + IAST) and software composition analysis (SCA), Invicti scans every corner of an app to find what other tools miss. With asset discovery, it's easier to discover all web assets — even ones that are lost, forgotten, or created by rogue departments. Through tried-and-true methods, Invicti helps DevSecOps teams get ahead of their workloads to hit critical deadlines, improve processes, and communicate more effectively.

Invicti Web + API, formerly Acunetix, is a dynamic application security testing (DAST) platform for identifying and validating vulnerabilities across web applications, APIs, and other runtime assets. The platform automatically discovers applications, APIs, shadow assets, unlinked pages, and undocumented endpoints while supporting modern JavaScript applications and authenticated workflows. Its scanning engine detects more than 7,000 types of security issues, including vulnerabilities covered by the OWASP Top 10 and OWASP API Top 10 as well as business logic flaws. Invicti combines AI-driven risk scoring with runtime reachability, exploitability, and business context to help security teams prioritize vulnerabilities that represent demonstrable risk.

Modern software development must match the speed of the business. But the modern AppSec tool soup lacks integration and creates complexity that slows software development life cycles. Contrast simplifies the complexity that impedes today’s development teams. Legacy AppSec employs a one-size-fits-all vulnerability detection and remediation approach that is inefficient and costly. Contrast automatically applies the best analysis and remediation technique, dramatically improving efficiencies and efficacy. Separate AppSec tools create silos that obfuscate the gathering of actionable intelligence across the application attack surface. Contrast delivers centralized observability that is critical to managing risks and capitalizing on operational efficiencies, both for security and development teams. Contrast Scan is pipeline native and delivers the speed, accuracy, and integration demanded by modern software development.

This single, fully integrated solution conducts active, passive and agent-based assessments while its extensive flexibility evaluates risk according to each business. SAINT’s impressive, flexible and scalable scanning capabilities set it apart from many others in this space. SAINT has partnered with AWS, allowing its customers to take advantage of AWS’s efficient scanning. Should subscribers prefer, SAINT also offers a Windows scanning agent. Security teams can schedule scans easily, configure them with considerable occurrence flexibility and fine-tune them with advanced options. As a vulnerability management solution, SAINT Security Suite’s security research and development efforts focus on investigation, triage, prioritization, and coverage of vulnerabilities of the highest levels of severity and importance. Not willing to settle for just blanket coverage and raw data, our analysts focus on developing tools for what matters to our customers.

Chariot is the first all-in-one offensive security platform that comprehensively catalogs Internet-facing assets, contextualizes their value, identifies and validates real compromise paths, tests your detection response program, and generates policy-as-code rules to prevent future exposures from occurring.

SCYTHE is an adversary emulation platform for the enterprise and cybersecurity consulting market. The SCYTHE platform enables Red, Blue, and Purple teams to build and emulate real-world adversarial campaigns in a matter of minutes. SCYTHE allows organizations to continuously assess their risk posture and exposure. SCYTHE moves beyond just assessing vulnerabilities. It facilitates the evolution from Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVE) to Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs). Organizations know they will be breached and should focus on assessing detective and alerting controls. Campaigns are mapped to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, the industry standard and common language between Cyber Threat Intelligence, Blue Teams, and Red Teams. Adversaries leverage multiple communication channels to communicate with compromised systems in your environment. SCYTHE allows you to test detective and preventive controls for various channels.
