CST VerdictBased on our analysis of NIST CSF 2.0 coverage, core features, integrations, company size fit, here is our conclusion:
Startup and SMB security teams with limited scanning bandwidth should run Intruder XSS Scanner for its breadth across 75+ application vulnerabilities and 140,000+ infrastructure checks, all automated on a schedule you set once and forget. The authenticated scanning behind login pages and SPA support mean you're catching real-world XSS exposure in modern applications, not just the obvious entry points. Skip this if your priority is SAST integration into the developer IDE or if you need forensics-grade post-breach investigation; Intruder maps cleanly to continuous monitoring and risk identification, not incident response.
SMB and mid-market teams with web applications but no dedicated AppSec staff should start with SaltyCloud Dorkbot; it catches SQLi and XSS without requiring security expertise to operate or interpret results. The fully hosted service eliminates infrastructure overhead, and automatic false positive reduction means your team actually remediates instead of triaging noise. Skip this if you need DAST integrated with SAST or runtime protection; Dorkbot is deliberately scanning-only, which is both its strength and its boundary.
