It is a robust, commercial-grade, and full-featured toolkit for the Transport Layer Security (TLS) and Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocols. It is also a general-purpose cryptography library. On the other hand, StackHawk is detailed as "Find, triage, and fix application security bugs". An application security tool built for developers. Automated security bug scanning for the entire dev pipeline. Find, Triage, and Fix.
OpenSSL and StackHawk can be categorized as "Security" tools.
Some of the features offered by OpenSSL are:
- Robust
- Commercial-grade
- Transport Layer Security
On the other hand, StackHawk provides the following key features:
- Scan your running app for security bugs with a single Docker command
- Prioritize high risk findings, manage backlog of low risk items, and silence noise of known and accepted risk
- Manage configuration in code, allowing for collaboration, scalability, and version control
