This article is a stub. You can help OWASP by expanding it or discussing it on its Talk page.

Overall Approach

The goal of this project is to provide the following information (at a minimum) in each tool category:

  • General strengths and weaknesses of tools in this category
  • Important selection criteria for comparing tools within the category (e.g. ease of use, performance, cost, likelihood of false positives)


We are still working on defining the rating criteria and the different possible ways to rate these tools:

  • We may rate the tools ourselves.
  • We may seek other users' feedback based on their experiences
  • We may also seek other independent reviews.
