The evolving threat landscape in cybersecurity necessitates the adoption of advanced tools for effective vulnerability management. This paper presents a comprehensive comparative analysis of three widely used tools: Nessus, Acunetix, and Nikto. Each tool is assessed based on its detection accuracy, risk scoring using the Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS), ease of use, automation and reporting capabilities, performance metrics, and cost effectiveness. The research addresses the challenges faced by organizations in selecting the most suitable tool for their unique security requirements.
