Unique capability accelerates risk
identification with proactive prioritization of web
application vulnerabilities.
AUSTIN,
Texas, April 23, 2024 /PRNewswire/
-- Invicti, the leading provider of application security
testing solutions, today announced its new AI-enabled Predictive
Risk Scoring capability. The feature assigns predicted risk to
applications and helps organizations gain a strategic view of their
overall application security risk.
Predictive Risk Scoring allows organizations to determine which
web applications should be scanned first and proactively prioritize
remediation efforts. This new capability remaps the application
security testing process to profile and calculate a risk score on
all discovered web applications—before any scanning begins.
Risk management and prioritization are ongoing challenges in
application security with the high volume of vulnerabilities that
are discovered across web applications and APIs. While
vulnerability severity helps order which vulnerabilities might
require attention over others, there's still a lack of information
around exploitability and risk.
"Everyone working in cybersecurity needs to work faster, with
more confidence that they are doing the right thing to protect
their organizations. This new advancement in AppSec testing helps
make that a reality," said Neil
Roseman, CEO at Invicti. "CISOs can now look at their
application attack surface using a risk-based approach,
guaranteeing that their AppSec program is focusing efforts in the
right areas."
Predictive Risk Scoring addresses the gap in vulnerability
severity information by applying an AI model on discovered assets
and calculating a risk score from a set of 220 parameters with a
minimum 83% confidence level. Among the many advantages from this
innovation, no scanning resources are required and no customer data
is needed to assess the risk score.
"Protecting applications is crucial for companies of all sizes,
but it's challenging with the complexity and noise in the
application security market, amplified with the adoption of AI. Now
more than ever, security teams need to prioritize their efforts to
address the riskiest issues, with speed and scale." said
Melinda Marks, Practice Director,
Cybersecurity at ESG. "Risk-based prioritization can help
organizations best deploy their resources and optimize efficiency
to secure their environments to support business growth."
Predictive Risk Scoring is currently available to Invicti
customers using both Acunetix and Invicti (formerly Netsparker)
product lines.
