Let’s explore and compare Orchestrations or Security Orchestration and Correlation (ASOC) tools with the distinctive features of Backslash.
The core function of Orchestration tools lies in aggregating data from various application security tools and solutions. Its broad integration and correlation capabilities help provide a quick overview of the AppSec landscape. They generally offer out-of-the-box integration with open-source security tools, which is beneficial but also has its limitations. However, relying solely on ASOC and its native open-source integrations poses challenges:
Let’s see a detailed comparison of the differences between Backslash and Orchestration solutions:
Simple, quick, and easy integration with the Git repository enables the provision of a complete security posture
30 minute implementation providing results within minutes
Emphasizes a meticulous and targeted strategy, offering in-depth security analysis and precise prioritization for effective risk mitigation
Offers reachability analysis out of the box for superior prioritization
Offers precise prioritization for vulnerabilities based on reachability analysis, coupled with advanced features like EPSS, VEX and SBOM.
Gives Appsec visibility while still enabling collaboration by providing deep context for developers
Integrates out of the box with open-source software, providing broad but shallow and noisy results. Additionally, integration with commercial tools requires a significant amount of work.
Implementation requires many integration, making the implementation phase long and difficult
Provides high-level results but lack the depth required for intricate security contexts and risk mitigation
Necessitate additional tools and costs for deeper insights
Prioritization is dependent on open source tools, lacking deep application context and leaving high numbers of vulnerabilities and false-positives
Built for visibility only, missing deep context for dev teams
Bundles SAST, SCA and secrets in one solution, providing comprehensive coverage for reduce cost
Involve additional costs for integrating multiple tools to achieve a better AppSec strategy
Offers clear accountability and detailed results, facilitating efficient issue resolution
Lacks inherent accountability for results, and issues may require collaboration with integrated tools, potentially leading to delays

Orchestration tools are only as good as the tools they work with, meaning they aren't standalone solutions. Backslash takes a focused and detailed approach to application security. Prioritizing precision, Backslash places emphasis on depth, ensuring a comprehensive understanding of the complexities inherent in potential security threats. This approach makes Backslash a great choice for organizations looking to get a clear visibility on your environment risk posture and prioritize accordingly.
