('binary' encoding is not supported, stored as-is) Hi,

My manager gave me our pen testing project and I'm still coming up to speed so forgive me if this question is not 100% list appropriate.

>From what I can tell the top 3 automated pen testing programs are from SPI Dynamics, Cenzic and Watchfire. I haven't evaled any of them quite yet but they each seem to have their advantages and disadvantages. Cenzic is claiming to be the most accurate at least according to their 20/20 marketing program http://www.cenzic.com/forms/ec.php?pubid=10076 but I'm wondering what people have actually seen.

And if any of you posters from SPI, Cenzic or Watchfire want to email me directly and tell me your benefits, that's fine. I don't want the thread to be a sales pitch, just looking to benefit from the knowledge of others.

Thanks everyone!

Zack
