PwC had growing demand from its clients to expand their risk assessment practice into web application vulnerability assessments and wanted an automated solution that would enable them to deliver its service efficiently. PwC adopted AppScan software shortly after its commercial release in mid-2000. AppScan enables quick, accurate, flexible and efficient web application vulnerability assessments. Rapid and thorough assessment facilitates comprehensive application fixes, cost-effectively keeping businesses and information assets safe. Until AppScan, accurate, flexible, efficient assessments of web applications just weren't possible.
