COMPARE · INVICTI (FORMERLY NETSPARKER)

Looking for an Invicti alternative?
Here's an honest comparison.

Invicti is a mature, enterprise application security platform. Auditon takes a different approach: one assessment across the application and the services behind it, reports that show exactly what ran, and published pricing about 40% lower. Here's where each one fits.

AreaAUDITONINVICTI
Assessment scopeThe web application plus the services behind it: ports, SSH, SMB, SNMP, TLS, domain mail security, and version-based CVE lookup, in one assessment. STRONGERApplication security platform: DAST, API security, SAST, SCA, and attack surface management as separate products.

EvidenceStructured evidence and scanner confidence where supplied. Raw request and response data is withheld from published reports.Full HTTP request and response per finding, and proof-based confirmation of exploitable issues. STRONGER

THE RIGHT FIT

Different tools for different teams.

Auditon is a good fit if you…

  • want the application and the infrastructure it runs on assessed together
  • need to see exactly what was tested, and what wasn't
  • want findings mapped to OWASP, PCI DSS 4.0, and ISO 27001 out of the box
  • prefer assessments run for you, without managing another platform
  • need recurring scans that double as ISO 27001 or SOC 2 audit evidence
  • want detailed findings for about 40% less

Invicti may suit you better if you…

  • need proof-based confirmation on every finding
  • run scanning self-service inside CI/CD pipelines
  • need form login or MFA handling today
  • want SAST, SCA, and DAST in a single platform

A LITTLE MORE CLARITY

Common questions
about switching.

Is Netsparker the same as Invicti?+

Yes. Netsparker is now called Invicti. If you are comparing against an older Netsparker setup, the same comparison applies.

Is Auditon a replacement for Invicti?+

For many teams that need regular web application and infrastructure assessments with detailed reports, yes. If you rely on proof-based confirmation, self-service CI/CD scanning, or form login and MFA handling, Invicti may still be the better fit today.

Can we compare both on the same application?+

Yes. Send your scope and a recent report, and we will scan the same target so you can compare coverage, reporting detail, and cost side by side.
