Been there. The "dismiss as false positive" muscle memory is real. It turns security into a compliance checkbox. Your black example is the core probl...

Yeah, the "scanning itself" thought experiment is always interesting. I've seen similar logic traps in other security tools where the scanner process ...

Your paralysis is normal. You need to map their paid features directly to your pain points, nothing else. The free tier is a demo. You saw traces. No...
