WebInspect : Application Security Testing
Find and prioritize web application vulnerabilities. Automate dynamic web application
testing across a software portfolio.
Microfocus WebInspect Tool
Microfocus WebInspect tool is one of the most advanced and leading security assessment tools designed to analyse all the applications and services for any security flaws and breaches. It allows widespread coverage advanced scanning, exhaustive knowledge, and to the point results. Microfocus WebInspect is the most important part of the security testing technology and any testing cannot be completed without it.
Microfocus WebInspect application tool helps in the identification of known and unknown vulnerabilities within the Web application layer. It also helps in ensuring that the web servers installed are configured properly and counter-attacks mechanisms are in place.
How does it work?
The working of Web inspect is very simple and has been broken down into 4 points:
1. Drill Down
Web inspect tool is an automated testing tool that helps in discovering configuration issues. It also aids to identify and prioritize security flaws in active applications. It can easily replicate the real hacking techniques used by real-life hackers and provides a complete analysis of web applications and services. WebInspect tools dashboard and reports provide complete visibility and risk factor associated with organizations.
2. Inside Context
Microfocus WebInspect gives you control over observations to reactions of applications at the code level conducted during scanning. It also helps in web page crawling and identification of applications to expand the coverage to attack and provide traces to confirm the identified vulnerabilities are correct.
3. Reports to be Actioned
Microfocus web inspect tool helps in creating exhaustive and quantifiable reports which are at par with business requirements. The responses are highlighted so that immediate attention is given to the attacks and flaws which are reported. The entire process can be easily repeated and retesting can be performed for the entire site, for a single flaw, or only for vulnerabilities. Apart from this, the result of the two scans can also be compared to further understand the difference or any combination.
4. Workflow Customization
The security intelligence of the enterprise can be centralised using the WebInspect tool which further aids in an in-depth understanding of the security risks of the organization. It provides you the ability and leverage to manage and view the security portfolio of the organization and track vulnerabilities and develop and confirm actions against it. It further allows you to view the progress of the trends detected.
To put the complete process in a much-simplified manner, the following is the process:
To start a scan using WebInspect vulnerability scanner, start Web Inspect and New File. By doing so scan wizard will open and you can select the type of scan that you need to conduct.
On the right-hand side in the scan wizard, the list of recently conducted scans and the ones scheduled will be displayed. Any scan can be scheduled as per your specific timings. After you select the website scan you will be routed to the scan window where the name of the scan being conducted needs to be entered. After this crawl, an audit needs to be selected for the scan to begin.
Following are the type of scans available:
Standard scan: Commonly used scan.
List Driven scan: Customized scan based on the URL.
Workflow Driven scan: Specific parts of the website can be scanned instead of the complete site.
Manual scan: Step mode manual scan depending on the size specified.

In spite of all the technological advances the WebInspect scanner is very easy to use and requires minimal configuration and changes.
It supports automatic testing of embedded modules and also supports testing of advanced WSDLs.
The interactive reviews enable the users to interact with the results and give a detailed view of vulnerabilities
Why Web inspect for Application Security?
- As compared to its peers, WebInspect tools provide integration with almost every platform irrespective of the model it is based on. The websites can be integrated easily.
- Due to its advanced applications and scanning tools, the scanning job can be completed in no time, thereby saving time for the professional, which can be further utilised elsewhere.
- It not only stimulates the attacks but also shows you the results and gives a detailed result with remedies.
- The vulnerability scanner is not dependent on the language on which the website or application is based.
