Integrate Appknox with Vulnetix. Export mobile app security findings via the Appknox API and upload to Vulnetix for mobile vulnerability management.
How Vulnetix compares: better together
Vulnetix does not replace Appknox. Keep running it. Vulnetix sits on top of Appknox (and every other scanner you already own) turning disconnected tool outputs into one prioritised, fixable queue.
Appknox is strongest at its core category and also carries features in DAST, SAST, SCA, Pentest, Bug Bounty & Vulnerability Disclosure, SBOM Generation, Secret Scanning, just as Vulnetix spans categories.
| Capability | Vulnetix | Appknox |
|---|---|---|
| Security coverage | ||
| SAST (static code analysis) | ✓ Built-in rules + Semgrep augmentation | ~ Binary-based static analysis of compiled APK/IPA artifacts |
| SCA / dependencies | ✓ 40+ ecosystems, transitive graph | ~ Binary-based SBOM enumerates libraries, frameworks and third-party SDKs |
| DAST (dynamic testing) | ~ Ingests DAST results; no native dynamic engine | ~ Automated real-device dynamic testing plus API endpoint testing |
| Container & image | ✓ Image CVEs, base image, Dockerfile | ✗ |
| IaC / misconfiguration | ✓ Terraform, k8s, CloudFormation | ✗ |
| Secret scanning | ✓ 1,000+ rules, source + binary + git history | ~ Static test cases surface hardcoded secrets/keys in the binary |
| Cloud / CSPM | ✓ Cloud-posture findings, compliance tab | ✗ |
| Mobile (MAST) | ~ Ingests mobile scanner output; no native mobile engine | ✓ Core: enterprise MAST across SAST+DAST+API for Android/iOS, 130+ test cases |
| License compliance | ✓ SPDX, copyleft/AGPL/SSPL policy | ✗ |
| SBOM generation | ✓ CycloneDX 1.7 + SPDX 2.3, cosign-signable | ~ Generates binary-based SBOM of app components |
| Malware / supply-chain | ✓ De-duplicated corpus + install-time firewall (25+ registries) | ~ Storeknox add-on monitors app stores for malicious clones/unauthorized copies |
| Network / infra vuln | ~ Ingests network scanner output; no native network scanner | ✗ |
| Fuzzing | ✗ Ingests fuzzing crashes; no native fuzzer | ✗ |
| Pentest / bug bounty | ✗ Ingests pentest/bug-bounty findings; not a testing service | ~ Manual penetration testing / VAPT by researchers on top of automation |
| The Vulnetix orchestration layer | ||
| Cross-scanner dedup & one queue (ASPM) | ✓ Correlates every scanner into one prioritised queue with ownership routing | ✗ |
| Exploit-intel prioritisation | ✓ EPSS, CISA KEV, Coalition ESS, CWSS, Vulnetix LEV | ✗ |
| Reachability analysis | ✓ Tree-sitter + CVEAffected; direct/transitive/semantic | ✗ |
| Versioned VEX + audit trail | ✓ Immutable OpenVEX/CycloneDX, cosign-signable | ✗ |
| Safe Harbour autofix | ✓ Resolves + applies the nearest safe version | ✗ |
| End-of-life policy | ✓ Flags/blocks past-EOL runtimes & packages | ✗ |
| SSVC / risk-based policy | ✓ SSVC v2 + CISA/FedRAMP/Essential-8 presets | ✗ |

What Appknox does well
- Binary-based SAST that analyses compiled APK/IPA directly, so no source access is required
- Automated real-device DAST plus API testing (broken auth/access control, insecure transmission, injection, CORS) in one platform
- Manual penetration testing / VAPT by security researchers layered on automated scans, with KnoxIQ exploitability validation driving a stated <1% false-positive rate
- Continuous, compliance-mapped evidence (OWASP MASVS/Mobile Top 10, PCI-DSS, GDPR) plus Storeknox app-store monitoring for cloned/malicious copies
Where Vulnetix adds to it: Appknox runs the real-device DAST, API tests and human VAPT that Vulnetix does not perform itself. Vulnetix ingests and orchestrates Appknox's findings, deduping them with your SAST/SCA/container/IaC/secrets scanners into one prioritised queue and adding exploit-intel prioritisation, reachability, immutable versioned VEX + audit, EOL and SSVC policy, and Safe Harbour autofix.
No migration, no rip-and-replace. Appknox keeps doing what it does best; Vulnetix adds the orchestration, exploit-intelligence prioritisation and remediation layer built for the way AppSec works today.
Centralise Appknox results in Vulnetix
Upload Appknox JSON, PDF, CSV output to the Vulnetix platform to deduplicate findings, prioritise them with EPSS, CISA KEV and Coalition ESS exploit intelligence, and track remediation across every scanner in a single queue.
