Sanctum Announces General Availability of AppScan QA for Mercury TestDirector
 
First QA Tool to Fully Integrate Automated Security Testing to Enable Accelerated Delivery of Bulletproof Applications

SANTA CLARA, CALIF. — December 8, 2003 — Sanctum, Inc., the leader in automated Web application security firewall and testing solutions, today announced the general availability of AppScan� QA 4.0 for Mercury TestDirector 8.0 through a technology partnership with Mercury Interactive Corporation (Nasdaq: MERQ). AppScan QA for Mercury TestDirector delivers an integrated testing platform to QA organizations to make Web application security testing an easy part of the daily QA process. Integrating AppScan QA with TestDirector provides QA engineers the ability to centrally manage and run all aspects of Web application testing-functionality, load and security-from a single environment, providing customers with a lower total cost of operation, reduced business risk and accelerated delivery of secure applications.

"The most effective way for enterprises to become more secure is to buy and build software that is more secure. Integrating security testing into development, QA and testing needs to be considered standard due diligence to prevent identity theft, cyber crime and business system downtime," said John Pescatore, vice president and research fellow at Gartner, Inc.

"Integrating AppScan QA with the leading global test management solution follows through on Sanctum's ongoing commitment to building alliances that deliver comprehensive integrated security testing within familiar application development and testing environments," said Peggy Weigle, CEO of Sanctum, Inc. "AppScan QA for Mercury TestDirector enables c-level executives to mandate faster time-to-market of highly secure applications by making security a priority for QA teams. Through this partnership, Sanctum and Mercury Interactive are taking the initiative of arming their users with the tools needed to reduce the cost and time to fix security-related defects."

Features of AppScan QA for Mercury TestDirector include:

  • Intelligent Testing—AppScan's intelligent testing engine provides automatic test creation, modification and maintenance processes needed to test and act on remediation of security defects including common Web vulnerabilities, application specific defects and any Web-based XML/SOAP application.
  • Seamless Integration—Within the familiar testing hosts of the TestDirector environment, users can create and execute security tests for their Web application test plans, store and share configurations and sessions; keep information on past runs; and monitor progress along all as part of the normal QA run.
  • Defect Management—Security defects are easily identified alongside typical feature, functionality and performance defects, within the TestDirector defect tracking and analysis system providing centralized control, distributed workload and low maintenance.
  • Bug Fixes—Users are given comprehensive security advisories suitable for any audience, translating technical details into business terms and providing detailed fix recommendations and views of the test and response, empowering QA personnel to more efficiently communicate with developers for the resolution of defects.
