Why Choose Acunetix?

Acunetix believes that to maintain the best level of security in a larger organization, web vulnerability scanning should be treated as part of the development and operational processes. Acunetix Premium uses the Acunetix scanning engine and introduces functions that let you fully integrate it within your SDLC.
  • To integrate Acunetix for example with Jira or Jenkins, you need only a couple of minutes. You can also integrate Acunetix with other environments, including GitHub, GitLab, TFS, Bugzilla, and Mantis.
  • Performance is important, so the Acunetix engine is developed in C++, which makes it very fast. It is also optimized to discover vulnerabilities using as few requests as possible, to eliminate bottlenecks associated with network and server load. You can also deploy multiple on-premise engines to further increase performance. High performance also goes in line with a very low number of false positives.
  • Acunetix Premium is available for Windows, Linux, and also provided as an online (cloud) solution so you can choose whichever one best fits your environment and technical capacities. Note that it is the only business-class web vulnerability scanner available on Linux.
