I been using this tool for security validation and continuous testing , so my review has been best. This platform reduces a lot of manual effort by continuously testing the environment and giving clear insights into security gaps. The initial setup and understand the flow require quite more time especially for the beginners. overall it really works well for the security validation and improving overall security posture.

“Great, But can do better”

3.0

In my opinion, Ridgebot is a good penetration testing software but still has a long way to go. The software's ML capability is quite advanced. It learns from previous assessments and continuously improves its ability to detect vulnerabilities. However, unlike other similar tools that I've used before, its coverage for emerging technologies and niche frameworks is quite limited.

RidgeBot Likes & Dislikes

I love it when it focuses on validating real attack paths instead of long list of vulnerabilities. I also like how the platform runs automated testing in the background without requiring constant manual input. This allows the team to continuosly monitor security without any alterations in our daily activities.

Great at simulating attack scenarios.

Fast results, easy to use, you don't need to be an expert, and the recommendations for fixing vulnerabilities are very good.

Automated Translation from Spanish

I dislike about this tool is the initial setup and configuration could take some time .this tool helps in automation there are situations where more control or customization would be useful , particular for the advanced testing scenaries.

It's speed for scanning large applications is a bit slow. Limited threat detection capabilities

There were some false positives, but I think it's within the range we expect as cybersecurity experts.
