Pros & Cons summary

Wiz Code significantly reduces time to identify critical security issues from days to minutes, enhancing security efficiency. It improves security with its DevOps integration and resource-friendly scanners. Auto-fixing PR features expedite vulnerability remediation. However, it lacks metadata integration and suffers from a hefty pricing model, inadequate customer support, and false positives. Improvements in secret scanning and push protections at Github or GitLab are needed for tech buyers considering acquisition.

Wiz Code Pros review quotes

The best features of Wiz Code that I appreciate the most include their entire dashboarding and the seamless integration with different DevOps tooling like GitHub or Azure DevOps, allowing you to run scanners directly onto the machines without consuming too many resources, and the recategorization of vulnerabilities is absolutely wonderful, giving you a complete attack path, which is something I love about Wiz Code because it details the entire lateral movement of the issue, whether it is a complete shift-left or shift-right, serving as the differentiators compared to other tools in the market.

Before Wiz Code, the security team manually correlated the cloud assets, vulnerabilities, IAM permissions, and internet exposure, with critical issues identified in five days, but now, with the security graph automatically correlating findings, critical issues are identified in 30 minutes, resulting in a 90 percent plus reduction in investigation effort.

Using Wiz Code has been a worthy investment, as manually checking all 100 AWS accounts for issues would take an immense amount of time, but Wiz Code allows us to scan all accounts within minutes and continuously monitors our cloud environment every 24 hours, displaying any changes in the Wiz Code UI under the issues and threats section.

The best features with Wiz Code give you a reasonable picture when it comes to vulnerabilities, which means you see the usual severity levels, you also get to see references on how to remediate vulnerabilities, and the fact that it has a visual dashboard helps all stakeholders, especially folks who need to remediate, to get that picture correctly and then take action.

Wiz Code is a platform that serves most of these features as a single entity, which has definitely reduced the time for triaging the security aspects of vulnerabilities and helps in overall innovation for the team.

Wiz Code could be better in secret scanning where no push protections are enabled at the GitHub or GitLab level to prevent pushing secrets on GitHub itself.
