Invicti DAST
The World's Best DAST for 20+ Years
The industry’s most accurate DAST, combined with multi-layer API discovery and proof-based scanning to uncover exploitable risks across modern applications and APIs.
3600+ Top Organizations Trust Invicti
Where Competitors Fall Short
Noise
A study by Miercom showed that competitors like Stackhawk inflated low-severity vulnerabilities and missed more critical vulnerabilities than Invicti.
Speed and depth
Most competitors require significantly longer runtimes without corresponding improvements in high-impact vulnerability coverage.
Blind spots across attack surfaces
In a vulnerable API assessment, Tenable, Snyk, and StackHawk found none of the 4 proven critical vulnerabilities Invicti flagged.
proof-based scanning
Know which vulnerabilities are critical
Invicti’s proof-based scanning confirms real vulnerabilities automatically by exploiting them safely and showing you the proof. When an issue is flagged, your team can trust it and fix it fast.
Made for developers
Scan fast without disrupting your workflow
Invicti fits directly into your CI/CD pipeline with native integrations for tools like Jenkins, GitHub, and Azure to deliver clean, actionable results right inside developer workflows.

no blind spots
Find and test all endpoints—APIs included
Invicti is built for enterprise scale, scanning complex web applications without slowing you down. It handles dynamic apps, APIs, single page applications (SPAs), and authenticated workflows with ease.
World’s best DAST, even better with AI
Invicti's DAST has evolved for the AI era with DAST-SAST correlation, innovations in agentic pentesting, and new ways to protect against vibe-coded applications.
What customers say
“For more websites, we now don’t need to go externally for security testing. We can fire up Invicti, run the tests as often as we like, view the scan results, and mitigate to our hearts’ content. As a result, the budget we were spending every year on penetration testing decreased by approximately 60% almost immediately and went down even more the following year, to about 20% of our initial spending.”
- Brian Brackenborough | CISO, Channel 4
“Invicti detected web vulnerabilities that other solutions did not. It is easy to use and set up...”
- Henk-Jan Angerman | Founder, SECWATCH
“I had the opportunity to compare expertise reports with Invicti ones. Invicti was better, finding more breaches.”
- Andy Gambles | Senior Analyst, OECD
“Invicti is the best web application security scanner in terms of price-benefit balance. It is a very stable software, faster than the previous tool we were using and it is relatively free of false positives, which is exactly what we were looking for.”
- Harald Nandke | Principal Consultant, Unify (now Mitel)
Frequently asked DAST questions
How accurate is Invicti DAST? Will it flood us with false positives?
Invicti’s proof-based scanning safely confirms exploitable issues (PoE/PoC), so developers get tickets they can trust. In third-party validations and our long-term user data analysis, confirmed findings achieve 99.98% accuracy.
Does it really find SQLi, XSS, and business-logic issues?
Yes. Invicti uses advanced checks plus proof/confirmation to surface exploitable issues first, so you don’t end up with “all config, no impact” reports. When combined with additional IAST, reports can even include stack traces or the exact query for faster fixes.
How do you handle authentication and hard-to-reach areas?
Invicti is authentication-aware and designed to scan authenticated flows (including complex login) so you get coverage where vulnerabilities actually hide, not just on your public pages.
Can we plug this into CI/CD and automate everything (Jenkins, GitHub, Jira, GitLab, Azure)?
Yes. 110+ out-of-the-box integrations plus a powerful API and open-source CLI let you orchestrate scans in pipelines, push only verified issues to work trackers, enforce gates, and re-test fixes automatically.
How does DAST fit into ASPM so we get one clean view without duplicates?
ASPM is only as good as its inputs. Invicti feeds runtime-validated, low-noise findings into the posture layer to de-duplicate, correlate, and prioritize what’s actually exploitable so teams fix what reduces risk fastest – all within one platform. Learn more about Invicti ASPM here.
What does “proof-based” actually mean?
When Invicti flags a critical vulnerability as verified (SQLi, command injection, etc.), it means it has safely exploited it in a controlled way and includes proof in the report so teams can reproduce and fix without debate. For XSS, we execute a confirmation payload within an embedded browser and attach a working PoC. Read more about how it works here.
Do you cover APIs (REST, SOAP, GraphQL) and OWASP API Top 10 risks like BOLA?
Yes. Invicti treats APIs as first-class citizens, ingesting definitions (OpenAPI/Swagger, Postman, WSDL, GraphQL schemas), discovering unknown endpoints, understanding JSON responses, and testing real API risks mapped to the OWASP API Top 10. Learn more about API security here.
Will scans slow us down?
Invicti’s latest scan engine is built for speed and scale, running checks up to 8× faster in recent benchmarks against previous (already industry-leading) versions. Use scan profiles and policies to focus on what matters, schedule scans to fit release cadences, and rely on proof to minimize post-scan churn.
Can we pull data to Excel/BI and build executive dashboards?
Absolutely. You can export the data you need from the full internal API and use built-in dashboards/metrics to track MTTR, SLA adherence, and posture trends across apps, business units, and environments – and then share executive-ready reports.
What about licensing (targets, resets, and overage flexibility)?
Unlike many other vendors, Invicti provides flexible licensing that matches the way you build and operate your applications and lets you scan as often as you need. Learn more about Invicti pricing here.
no more chasing false positives
