“Appknox Tool improvement”

3.0
Mar 31, 2020
Hi Appknox team, We are using the tool for testing our mobile apps its good but still we have asked to implement some use cases to develop the mobile application security testing process but its still in progress, please update your tool with other test cases, like code obfuscation, memory dump and, ssl pinning issues but still compare to other tools its good to work with appknox on SAST and DAST assessments but still there should be some improvement needs to be done in API scan as well Please update your tool as per the above comments so it will be a great tool for testing the mobile applications

    Balancing Speed and Precision in SAST/DAST/API Scanning Tools

    4.0
    Jan 14, 2025
    The quality of the tool is quite good, you can perform the SAST/DAST/API scans quickly, for DAST you have to perform manual interventions in the Demo environment provided by the portal, perhaps many times zooming into the interface of the demo portal can be a problem, sometimes there can be false positives that need to be clarified with Appknox.

Need to update the test cases according to owasp mobile security
