INVICTI  VS. TENABLE

Validate real application risk at runtime.

When web applications and APIs are the priority, Invicti helps security teams move beyond vulnerability alerts. Proof-based scanning, runtime validation, and automated remediation workflows turn findings into evidence that developers can act on. 

Test modern web applications and APIs, including authenticated and JavaScript-heavy areas.

Automatically confirm many exploitable vulnerabilities and reduce manual triage. 

Route validated findings into the tools and workflows developers already use.

VERIFIED CUSTOMER REVIEWS

Built for teams that need confidence in every finding

Invicti combines deep testing of applications and APIs with proof-based validation, helping security teams spend less time investigating possible vulnerabilities and more time addressing real risks.

"Scan results are near perfect with few false positives compared to other costly solutions available in the market."
-Security Engineer
vs
"The reports contain false positive sometimes that needs to be understood from the application perspective and sorted with business impact points."
- Knowledge Specialist
"False positives and false negatives are very low."
- Principal Engineer
vs
"Nessus is susceptible to produce false positives and because of that the testers need to put more effort and time."
- Penetration Tester - Review collected by and hosted on G2.com
"Fast and lightweight web application security scanner, their motto is zero false positive and their word is completely true."
- Senior Expert
vs
"What I dont like this Nessus proffesional version is some time it gives false positives. If those results are false positive, all the search time and testing times are wasted."
- Analyst
"Finds security vulnerabilities very effectively. One of the best zero or less false/positive thread generation."
- Software Manager
vs
"Sometimes it Gives false results which lead to waste of my Time."
- Security Engineer (G2 SOURCED)
"Very little false positives and best of all it confirms most of the findings."
- IT Security Officer
vs
"Nessus is susceptible to the development of false positives and therefore the testers need to put more effort and time into this."
- IT (G2 review)

Find risks across attack surfaces

Scan websites, web applications, APIs, and services in runtime to uncover weaknesses across the technologies and workflows attackers can reach. Find AppSec risks including:

Injection vulnerabilities

Exposed data and databases

Cross-site scripting (XSS)

Security misconfigurations

Remote code execution

Out-of-band vulnerabilities

Server-side request forgery

OWASP Top 10

Authentication and access-control weaknesses

And more

The software is an important part of my security strategy which is in progress toward other services at OECD. And I find it better than external expertise. I had, of course, the opportunity to compare expertise reports with Invicti ones. Invicti was better, finding more breaches.

– Andy Gambles, Senior Analyst

Give developers findings they can trust

Evidence-backed findings help developers understand what is vulnerable, where the risk appears, and what needs to happen next. Invicti helps security and development teams:

Reduce validation work: Automatically confirm many exploitable vulnerabilities before they reach the remediation queue.

Prioritize proven risk: Use runtime evidence to distinguish demonstrable vulnerabilities from theoretical concerns.

Automate ownership: Route findings to the appropriate developer or team using existing issue-tracking workflows to expedite fixes.

We scan all our websites for vulnerabilities as they are being developed. These scans are also used to satisfy a yearly scanning requirement from our governing organization. We have identified and corrected over 100 vulnerabilities with Invicti.

– David Pope, CISO

Build verified AppSec into existing workflows

Integrate testing into development: Run scans as applications move through build, test, and release workflows. Track findings, fixes, and retesting from a centralized view.

Integrate testing into development: Run scans as applications move through build, test, and release workflows. Track findings, fixes, and retesting from a centralized view.

Automate assignment: Create rules that route findings based on severity, asset, ownership, or policy.

Give developers faster feedback: Deliver evidence and remediation guidance inside the tools where development work happens.

50+ INTEGRATIONS

Connect runtime findings to your security stack

Test modern applications where they run

Runtime testing follows application behavior and user workflows to uncover vulnerabilities that are easy to miss in complex environments. Invicti crawls and tests complex applications in runtime, including technologies and workflows that can be difficult to assess with shallow scanning alone:

HTML5 applications

Unlinked files and directories

APIs and web services

Single-page applications (SPAs)

JavaScript-heavy apps

Areas protected by authentication

Invicti is Stable, Accurate and Versatile, with a lot of thought put into each of its features. An excellent product in the arsenal of any security professional.
