Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is a powerful methodology for identifying vulnerabilities in your web applications while they are running. Unlike Static Application Security Testing (SAST), which examines source code, DAST takes an “outside-in” approach. This means it actively tests the application during runtime, simulating real-world attacks to uncover security flaws such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), and misconfigurations.
By running simulated attacks, DAST tools identify weaknesses hackers could exploit in a production environment. It doesn’t require access to source code, making it effective even late in the development cycle or after deployment. DAST is a critical component of a complete application security strategy, as it helps ensure your applications are not only secure in theory but also in practice. Secure your applications with Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST). Identify security risks in runtime environments and strengthen web & mobile security.

Benefits of Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST)
- Identifying Real-World Threats: DAST tests your applications in real-time, detecting vulnerabilities that could be exploited by attackers in a live environment.
- Low False Positive Rate: DAST’s runtime testing reduces false positives, allowing your team to focus on genuine security threats without wasting time on non-issues.
- Scalable Testing Solutions: DAST tools can easily scale to meet the demands of your development environment, accommodating increasing application complexity and size without sacrificing performance or security effectiveness.
- Cost-Effective Testing: We offer scalable, on-demand DAST testing solutions that avoid the need for large investments in software or hardware, delivering value while maintaining strong application security.
- Comprehensive Coverage: DAST evaluates not only application code but also interfaces, configurations, and dependencies, ensuring a broad assessment of security vulnerabilities.
- Enhanced Compliance: By identifying vulnerabilities early, DAST helps ensure your applications meet industry standards like PCI DSS, HIPAA, and GDPR, reducing compliance risks.
- Real-Time Detection: DAST continuously monitors your application, detecting vulnerabilities in real-time as it runs, allowing proactive threat management before attackers exploit them.
