• Integration with Other Google Tools
  PageSpeed Insights seamlessly integrates with other Google tools such as Google Analytics and Search Console, providing a more holistic view of your website's performance.
• User Experience Metrics
  It measures Core Web Vitals, which are essential for understanding user experience metrics like loading time, interactivity, and visual stability.
• Free to Use
  The tool is completely free, making it accessible for developers, businesses, and individuals without any associated cost.

Possible disadvantages of PageSpeed Insights

• Limited Historical Data
  PageSpeed Insights doesn't maintain historical data or trends, making it difficult to track progress over time directly within the tool.
• Lack of Advanced Features
  While it's excellent for basic to intermediate analysis, it lacks some advanced features and customization options found in paid tools like GTmetrix or WebPageTest.
• Potential for Misinterpretation
  The results and recommendations can sometimes be technical and difficult for non-developers to understand, leading to potential misinterpretation or incorrect implementation.
• Server Dependency
  The tool's performance score can be influenced by server locations and current network conditions, which may not always provide a consistent assessment.
• Lag in Updates
  There can be a lag in updates to reflect the most recent changes in web development practices and Google’s own algorithms, meaning the tool might not always offer the latest best practices.

Guardius features and specs

• OWASP Active Scan task
  Active scanning attempts to find potential vulnerabilities by using known attacks against the selected targets. Active scanning is an attack on those targets
• OWASP Spider task
  The Spider is a tool that is used to automatically discover new resources (URLs) on a particular Site. It begins with a list of URLs to visit, called the seeds, which depends on how the Spider is started. The Spider then visits these URLs, it identifies all the hyperlinks in the page and adds them to the list of URLs to visit and the process continues recursively as long as new resources are found.
• OWASP Ajax Spider task
  The AJAX Spider add-on integrates in ZAP a crawler of AJAX rich sites called Crawljax. You can use it to identify the pages of the targeted site. You can combine it with the (normal) spider for better results.
• Performance Tests task
  Performance testing is a non-functional software testing technique that determines how the stability, speed, scalability, and responsiveness of an application holds up under a given workload.
• Lighthouse task
  Lighthouse is an open-source, automated tool for improving the quality of web pages. You can run it against any web page, public or requiring authentication. It has audits for performance, accessibility, progressive web apps, SEO, and more.
• API Monitoring task
  API Monitoring refers to the practice of monitoring Application Programming Interfaces, most commonly in production, to gain visibility into performance, availability and functional correctness. API Monitoring tools are designed to help you analyze the performance of your applications and improve poorly performing APIs.
• Ports Scan task
  An open port on the server is a very serious hole in the security of your infrastructure. Therefore, it is always very important to keep all ports under control. In computer networking, a port or port number is a number assigned to uniquely identify a connection endpoint and to direct data to a specific service.
• TLS/SSL Monitor task
  An SSL certificate is a digital certificate that authenticates a website's identity and enables an encrypted connection. SSL stands for Secure Sockets Layer, a security protocol that creates an encrypted link between a web server and a web browser.
• Ping task task
  A ping (Packet Internet or Inter-Network Groper) allows a user to test and verify if a particular destination IP address exists and can accept requests(test the reachability of a host on an Internet Protocol (IP) network). Ping measures the round-trip time for messages sent from the originating host to a destination computer that are echoed back to the source.
• Trivy reports task
  Trivy is a comprehensive and versatile security scanner. Trivy has scanners that look for security issues, and targets where it can find those issues.
• Grype reports task
  A vulnerability scanner for container images and filesystems. Works with Syft, the powerful SBOM (software bill of materials) tool for container images and filesystems.
• API/CI/CD
  Guardius provides an API so that users can embed it into their pipelines and automatically upload reports for analysis. The API also allows users to run tasks that Guardius should execute on a trigger, which can also be embedded into their pipelines.
• Statistic
  Users can view and download uploaded reports, analyze the number of vulnerabilities and other parameters over time, and compare reports to understand which new vulnerabilities have appeared and which have disappeared. They can assess how their site has improved or worsened from the previous scan and much more.
• Grouping
  Guardius offers the ability to group tasks into projects, and projects into environments. Grouping tasks allows users to understand which project they belong to. Additionally, users can view additional statistics for the entire project or environment, or for all projects and environments.
• Sharing
  If users need to share data, analysis, a task, or project with a colleague, or show a dashboard for a certain amount of time or by the number of views, they can utilize the sharing function. The corresponding task or dashboard will be shown to the colleague in read-only mode without requiring registration.
• Endpoints
  One of the main components of the Guardius platform is its ability to create REST and GraphQL endpoints of any type, which users can later use in various tasks. Users can group endpoints into collections and groups, similar to Postman. They can also import ready-made collections from Postman into Guardius or import/create endpoints from the OpenAPI Specification. Basic operations for copying and moving collections and endpoints are also available.
• Audit
  The Audit module allows users to track activities on the platform, such as logins, login attempts, operations, and changes.
• Dashboard
  Users can view the general status of all projects and tasks, successful and unsuccessful task launches, general actions and state statistics, and more with the help of the Dashboard
• Reports
  Guardius stores all uploaded and generated reports, allowing for detailed analysis of single reports, multiple reports, or reports over a certain period of time. Users can also view and download the source data.
• Notifications
  Guardius provides various notification channels that can be flexibly configured, such as email, WebHook for any type of request (REST/GraphQL), Slack, RocketChat, Mattermost, and Discord. Users can set up channels once and use them across the platform.
• Integration
  With the power of endpoints, users can integrate Guardius with almost any system, as most modern systems have an API. Users set up an endpoint with the desired request type once and use it multiple times across the platform.
• Security
  All sensitive data is encrypted. To prevent possible token theft and upload of spoofed reports, users can configure the upload reports possibility only over predefined IPs.
• Actions
  Each task already includes various built-in scanning or analysis check rules. Users only need to select or configure the option/parameter they need in order to receive notifications that meet their expectations and needs.
