The advent of AJAX applications has raised considerable security issues due to a broadened threat window brought about by the very same technologies and complexities developed. With an increase in script execution and information exchanged in server/client requests and responses, hackers have greater opportunity to steal data thereby costing organizations thousands of dollars in lost revenue, severe fines, diminished customer trust and substantial damage to your organization's reputation and credibility.

The only solution for effective and efficient security auditing is a vulnerability scanner which automates the crawling of websites to identify weaknesses. However, without an engine that parses and executes JavaScript, such crawling is inaccurate and gives website owners a false sense of security.
