Invicti

• Proof-Based Scanning

  When a vulnerability is found, Invicti attempts to safely exploit it and provides concrete proof. For SQL injection, it extracts actual data. For file inclusion, it reads a specific file. This eliminates the false positive problem that plagues most security scanners.

• DAST (Dynamic Application Security Testing)

  Tests running web applications by sending crafted HTTP requests and analyzing responses. Finds SQL injection, XSS, CSRF, file inclusion, authentication flaws, and other OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities in production or staging environments.

• IAST (Interactive Application Security Testing)

  Instruments the application at runtime to provide deeper vulnerability detection. Combines external scanning with internal application visibility. Finds vulnerabilities that pure DAST scanning might miss, such as insecure deserialization or business logic flaws.

• API Security Testing

  Scans REST APIs, GraphQL endpoints, and SOAP services. Imports API definitions (OpenAPI/Swagger, WSDL, GraphQL schemas) and tests all endpoints for vulnerabilities. Critical for modern applications where APIs are the primary attack surface.

• CI/CD Pipeline Integration

  Integrates with Jenkins, Azure DevOps, GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, and other CI/CD platforms. Automatically scans applications as part of the deployment pipeline. Fails builds if critical vulnerabilities are found.

• WAF Rule Export

  Exports discovered vulnerabilities as WAF rules that can be imported into WAF products. Creates targeted virtual patches for specific vulnerabilities found during scanning. Bridges the gap between vulnerability discovery and runtime mitigation.

• Compliance Reporting

  Generates compliance reports mapped to PCI DSS, HIPAA, ISO 27001, and OWASP Top 10 requirements. Useful for demonstrating due diligence during audits and regulatory reviews.

• Single-Page Application Support

  Full support for scanning modern JavaScript applications built with React, Angular, or Vue. Invicti executes JavaScript, interacts with dynamic page elements, and discovers application states that traditional crawlers miss.

NinjaFirewall (WP Edition)

• Pre-WordPress Filtering

  Hooks into PHP before WordPress core loads, filtering malicious requests before they reach any WordPress code.

• File Integrity Monitoring

  Detect unauthorized file changes with scheduled or real-time monitoring of WordPress core, plugins, and themes.

• Brute Force Protection

  Rate-limit and block brute force attacks against wp-login.php and xmlrpc.php with configurable thresholds.

• Real-Time Detection

  Immediate alerts for suspicious activity including file modifications, PHP shell uploads, and admin account changes.

• Event Notifications

  Email alerts for security events including plugin/theme installations, user account changes, and PHP errors.

• Live Log

  Real-time log viewer showing all HTTP/HTTPS requests processed by the firewall with detailed request data.
