* Detection of SQL injection and XSS vulnerabilities in PHP source code
* Automatic resolution of file inclusions
* Computation of dependence graphs that help you understand the causes of reported vulnerabilities
* Static analysis engine (flow-sensitive, interprocedural, context-sensitive)
* Platform-independent (written in Java)
