With attackers getting more sophisticated every day, manual methods of locating and testing web-based apps are no longer enough. The right Web Application Scanning (WAS) solution can help you systematically: discover web apps running in your network, determine whether or not they are vulnerable to attack, understand how to fix them, and protect your business while fixes are being implemented. With today’s automated, highly-accurate technology, you can now test all of your apps – in development, QA and production – whether you have a handful or many thousands. This checklist of best practices will save you time and help you understand what to look for when selecting a WAS solution.
