Insecure Deserialization: How SAST and DAST Work Together
Many businesses unknowingly expose themselves to risks like insecure deserialization—a subtle yet dangerous vulnerability. This flaw allows attackers to inject harmful data, potentially leading to remote code execution, data breaches, or system compromise. The fallout? Loss of critical data, operational downtime, and damage to a company’s reputation can take years to rebuild. Thankfully, a way […]
Cross-Site Scripting (XSS): SAST vs. DAST Detection Methods
What is Cross-Site Scripting (XSS)? Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) is a common web application vulnerability that allows attackers to inject malicious scripts into web pages viewed by other users. These scripts execute in the context of the victim’s browser, potentially stealing sensitive data, hijacking sessions, or redirecting users to malicious sites. There are three main types […]
SQL Injection: How SAST Detects it vs How DAST Exploits it
Cybersecurity threats like SQL injection pose significant risks to web applications by enabling attackers to manipulate poorly constructed SQL queries, potentially gaining unauthorized access to sensitive data. This can lead to severe consequences, such as financial loss and reputational damage. However, many organizations, driven by tight development timelines, often overlook critical application security issues, exposing […]

How SAST & DAST Detect OWASP Top 10 Vulnerabilities?
Introduction: The OWASP Top 10 vulnerabilities represent web applications’ most critical security risks. If left unaddressed, these vulnerabilities can result in severe consequences, including compliance violations and costly remediation. However, Integrating Static Application Security Testing (SAST) and Dynamic Application Security Testing (DAST) tools helps detect these vulnerabilities early, allowing you to secure your applications and […]
Using CI/CD Plugins for Security: SAST and DAST Automation
If your company still relies on developers or security experts for manual testing, you’re likely facing delays and missing out on critical vulnerabilities. Manual testing can be time-consuming and prone to human error, making it a less efficient option for today’s fast-paced development environment. However, by applying automated testing, you can streamline your security process, […]
Advanced SAST & DAST: Leveraging AI and ML for Cybersecurity
Introduction to AI and Machine Learning for Modern SAST and DAST: Cyber threats are evolving rapidly, and traditional security tools often struggle to keep up, leaving vulnerabilities that can lead to costly breaches. Static scans can miss dynamic threats, and DAST tools may be too slow to detect risks in real time. However, Integrating Artificial […]
Integrating SAST and DAST Tools with DevSecOps Pipelines
Security vulnerabilities often go unnoticed until it’s too late, leading to potential breaches and compliance issues. If you’re not using SAST and DAST tools in your DevSecOps pipeline, identifying and addressing these threats becomes much harder. Without these tools, discovering flaws only after deployment leads to delays, increased costs, and frustration. Traditional security measures outside […]
