Challenges

- Lack of reliability regarding the outcome since the scan items were unable to be customized in detail.
- Purchasing a license to scan multiple servers was not possible due to the high price.
- In the case of foreign tools, reports needed to be modified before submitting to clients since English was partially mixed even if Japanese patches were applied.
- Manual scans by developers resulted in inconsistent quality of assessment across the department since scan results varied depending on individual skills.

Benefits

- The reliability of scan results has been highly increased due to the ability to customize the parameters of scan items, giving developers more confidence in the results.
- Vex enables them to scan multiple servers seamlessly.
- Vex's extensive report options allows them to submit reports to clients without additional work for modifying them.
- They are now able to objectively prove to clients that "this result will be obtained no matter who does the test" based on the proper standards.
