DevSecOps: Dynamic Security Analysis with nuclei

What is DAST?

Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) is a method to test a snapshot of your application for security issues. It differs from static code analysis in the sense that it focuses on functionality, or else how your application reacts to different input sent by the tool used to perform DAST. By definition it is an automated processs done by a tool that you point to the direction of your API or web interface. The tool then has payloads that will be used during test and depending on the application responses it can identify potential issues.

How to choose the right SAST and SCA tools

Let's imagine you are in the situation where you have secured budget to buy tools that analyze the security of your code base. Most probably you will look for a Static Application Security Testing (SAST) solution to scan source code and a Software Composition Analysis (SCA) tool, to create your SBOMs and analyze security/licenses of open-source dependencies.
