Protection has secured our mobile algorithms and now testing guidelines need improvement
The best features DoveRunner Mobile Application Security offers include its simple integration, which is basically a pipeline, making it a plug-and-play type of approach that automatically takes care of all the heavy work. Regarding how the automatic protection works, I appreciate the simplicity of this particular SDK, as I just need to integrate it using Xcode directly and use CocoaPods to install it in applications, which simplifies the security layers along with all the signing and submission of the application to the App Store. DoveRunner Mobile Application Security has positively impacted my organization so far by alleviating a constant fear that our proprietary algorithms or shaders might be leaked, which could affect our application's revenue, and we are optimistic about achieving secure integration after launching in production.

Dedicated browser and repeater have improved my proxy testing and manual vulnerability checks
I'm hoping perhaps for something to make it easier, such as to define things where if a message or a response is such and such, automatically make a request that is such and such. Perhaps something like this because otherwise, nowadays we have to do it manually. Perhaps they can automate it a bit more. Perhaps they could add some automation to things, to see what we do manually, which it has the tools to do manually, and perhaps enable with a click of a button to do things automatically. I'm not too sure which, but I'm sure they can from a product management point of view, do things that we need to do two, three, or four steps manually regarding specific testing. For instance, we want to check something specific if it's this or if it's that. Perhaps to define it once and have it more automatic, perhaps.

Pros

"After exploring DoveRunner Mobile Application Security, I can say that you are getting everything on a single platform."
"DoveRunner Mobile Application Security has positively impacted my organization so far by alleviating a constant fear that our proprietary algorithms or shaders might be leaked, which could affect our application's revenue, and we are optimistic about achieving secure integration after launching in production."
"The most valuable feature is the application security. It also has a reasonable price."
"Enables automation of different tasks such as authorization testing."
"I am impressed with the tool's detailed analysis for penetration testing. AppScan can give only visibility, but it can't do the PT part. But the PortSwigger Burp Application can do both, and it gives much more visibility on the PT rating."
"This solution has done a lot to improve our organization, allowing us to be proactive and solve issues before our external auditors find them."
"The automated scan is what I find most useful because a lot of customers will need it. Not every domain will be looking for complete security, they just need a stamp on the security key. For these kinds of customers, the scan works really well."
"The free version is one of the best proxy tools for manual testing."
"Everyone seems very happy with the solution."
"I find the attack model quite amazing, where I can write my scripts and load my scripts as well, which helps quite a bit. All the active scanning that it can do is also quite a lot helpful. It speeds up our vulnerability assessment and penetration testing. Right now, I am enjoying its in-browser, which also helps quite a bit. I'm always confused about setting up some proxy, but it really is the big solution we all want."
 

Cons

"As I am in the exploration phase of DoveRunner Mobile Application Security, I chose a rating of eight."
"I think improved guidelines could be added regarding testing on the security aspect."
"The tool is very expensive."
"I would like to see a more optimized solution, as it currently uses a lot of CPU power and memory."
"Even though I started working with PortSwigger Burp Suite Professional, I think I may have run the Scanner once, but I prefer to run ZAP because I'm more used to it and I think it checks many more vulnerabilities."
"You can have many false positives in Burp Suite. It depends on the scale of the penetration testing."
"The technical support team's response time is mostly delayed and should be improved."
"The Auto Scanning features should be updated more frequently and should include the latest attack vectors."
"The use of system memory is an area that can be improved because it uses a lot."
"If we're running a huge number of scans regularly, it slows down the tool."
