Dynamic Aplication Security Testing TOOLS (DAST)
what are they and which are the best ? and most known ones ? and is there free open source tools (yes ofc) and which are the best.
Definition :
DAST tools are a type of security testing solution used to identify and assess vulnerabilities in web applications during runtime or while the application is in operation. Unlike Static Application Security Testing (SAST) tools that analyze the source code or binary of an application without executing it, DAST tools interact with the running application to discover potential security issues
- assess the security of an application in real-time by interacting with it during runtime. This can include simulating attacks, injecting malicious inputs, and analyzing the application's responses.
- operate as a "black box," meaning they do not have access to the internal source code of the application. They focus on evaluating the externally visible behavior of the application.
- typically employ automated scanning and crawling techniques to navigate through the web application, identifying various paths, inputs, and parameters. This allows them to test a wide range of attack vectors.
- aim to discover and report security vulnerabilities such as SQL injection, cross-site scripting (XSS), security misconfigurations, and other common web application security issues.
- DAST tools may have a higher rate of false positives compared to SAST
tools because they operate without access to the source code and rely on
dynamic analysis. As a result, findings may need additional
verification.
