As for integrations that we did with Qualys and Cenzic, NetScaler Application Firewall extends integrations with three other partners - Whitehat IBM AppScan and TrendMicro.
companies typically use web app analysis tools to identify vulnerabilities in their applications. Once vulnerabilities are found, their developers should really fix vulnerabilities to ensure applications are protected against the vulnerability attacks. However, in many cases, application developers need time to correct, check and download the latest software patches for their applications. In these cases, applications are susceptible to attack.
Integrations with different vulnerability tools allow the flexibility of NetScaler customers choose the right tools they want and ensure NetScaler can provide a rapid response to these situations of virtual patching. It also allows developers to stay in their software program, while minimizing the exposure of the application for vulnerabilities found by the vulnerability analysis tools.
In addition, NetScaler AppFW integrations with 3 rd party tools also reduce vulnerability AppFW errors and time to create rules by IT administrator since the rules are created automatically function outputs of the vulnerability tool rule. IT admin can easily select the classified rules that must be activated on AppFW.
Here is a screenshot of NetScaler 10.1 GUI where IT Admin can select 3 e party tool that NetScaler have integrations with:
Here is also a rule of capture sample converted from one of the outputs of the vulnerability tool so IT admin can easily select the rules to deploy:
This is the last glimpse of the solution with Whitehat for details. More to follow with Trend Micro and IBM AppScan solution memories.
