One thing to keep in mind is that Watchfire holds the definitive patent for conducting intelligent web crawling for vulnerabilities. Both SPI and Acunetix had to pay Watchfire multi-million dollar royalty payments in order to use the patent. SPI may be a little faster with new updates but Watchfire invented the process.
They didn't invent the process. They just happen to patent it. It was one of those obvious things... like how to breath... It's definitely a great way to extort money from competition :-) K ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Audit your website security with Acunetix Web Vulnerability Scanner: Hackers are concentrating their efforts on attacking applications on your website.
