ArcherySec vs Strobes ASPM

ArcherySec is a free, open-source vulnerability assessment and management tool for developers, penetration testers, and DevOps teams. It scans web applications and networks through supported tools, then brings scan findings together for review. Features include authenticated web scans, Selenium-based web application scanning, severity-based prioritization, false-positive tracking, finding deduplication, and remediation workflows. The product lists more than 80 commercial and open-source tool integrations; documented connectors include OWASP ZAP, Burp, Arachni, OpenVAS, Jira, and email. Its CLI can run in CI/CD pipelines and return pass or fail exit codes according to configured scan policies. REST APIs cover scanning and vulnerability management. The tool supports periodic and concurrent scans. Deployment documentation covers Linux, Docker, and Vagrant with Ansible, and the project provides Windows setup and run scripts. ArcherySec is self-hosted and distributed under the GPL-3.0 license. Users need to run supported scanners and provide their endpoints. The project advises against public exposure and recommends restricting the signup page in production.

Strobes ASPM brings application-security findings into a risk-prioritized view for developers and security teams. It ingests findings from SAST, DAST, software composition analysis, container scanners, penetration tests, and bug bounty programs. Risk scoring considers exploit likelihood, asset criticality, and compensating controls, with EPSS and KEV in the displayed context. In CI/CD, it can enforce security policy, block critical findings, warn on high findings, and provide feedback in pull requests. AI agents can triage and deduplicate findings, create and route tickets, track SLAs, and check fixes through rescanning. The integrations page lists more than 100 tools, including security scanners and cloud services; a GraphQL API supports querying and changing assets, findings, engagements, and assessments. Deployment options include cloud SaaS or private deployment. The free plan costs nothing and allows up to 100 assets, 500 tasks per month, and one connector. Starter costs $29,000 a year; Growth costs $45,000 a year. A 14-day trial offers access to ASM, RBVM, PTaaS, ASPM, and AI Agents, with guided onboarding by a dedicated security engineer.
