Comparison of Application Security Testing Approaches
Automated Software Security Testing Web applications can be tested manually or automated, as a black box or a white box, with static or dynamic analysis. In this post, we compare the advantages and disadvantages of a variety of approaches and solutions. An application security testing of the application may be executed in two different manners. Either the source code files of this application form that's composed in a particular programming language have been scanned (static evaluation), and also the URL/IP of an already setup and the functioning app is tested from remote (dynamic analysis). Static Application Security Testing (SAST) Static analysis is performed solely around the foundation code of a program without performing it. This has the good advantage which the source code shouldn't be running be operated such that SAST tools could be directly integrated into the creative process and detect security problems as soon as you can when the code is crea...
