Acunetix 13 web app security scanner comes with many innovations
2020-02-06 03:00

Acunetix 13 comes with an improved user interface and introduces innovations such as the SmartScan engine, malware detection functionality, comprehensive network scanning, proof-of-exploit, incremental scanning, and more.

Scanning complex web applications using traditional web vulnerability scanners may take hours, having a serious impact on production site performance and internal processes.

The SmartScan engine included with Acunetix 13 prioritizes unique pages to discover more vulnerabilities early on.

In addition to the previously available malicious link discovery function, the newest Acunetix release also introduces web malware scanning.

Acunetix discovers scripts on websites and web applications, downloads them, and scans them locally using Windows Defender on Windows or ClamAV on Linux.
